Common Mistakes to Avoid

Not accounting for line number width growth

If you have 1000+ lines, numbers 1-9 need different padding than 100-999. Calculate the maximum width upfront and pad all numbers consistently for alignment.

Numbering blank lines when they should be skipped

In many use cases (code listing, references), blank lines should not receive numbers. Provide an option to skip empty lines while maintaining the visual structure.
