And get used to writing without line numbers. There are only two situations when you might need them: the first is for a GOSUB or GOTO and you really shouldn't use those commands (I'm sure it won't be hard to find explanations why not!)
The second is for debugging, when it can be helpful to have your program report ERR " in line " ERL. Note however that if you can view the source code while your program is running, the statement that contains the error is highlighted.
Other than these two situations, writing without line numbers is much easier (particularly as BBC4W doesn't automatically renumber when you insert a line!)
