(Line number display is on by default, unless your site-specific
initialization disables it.) Note that Emacs will not display the line
number if the buffer's size in bytes is larger than the value of the
variable @code{line-number-display-limit}.

As of Emacs 20, you can similarly display the current column with
@kbd{M-x column-number-mode}, or by putting the form

Make the alias conditioned on the @code{EMACS} variable in the
environment.  When Emacs runs a subsidiary shell, it exports the
@code{EMACS} variable with the value @code{t} to that shell.  You can
unalias @code{ls} when that happens, thus limiting the alias to your
interactive sessions.
