How to show the cursor's current line & column position in Xcode?
Too my knowledge, showing column number has been removed from new versions of Xcode. You can see line number and set column guide in text editor setting though.
If you are coding in c/c++ I strongly suggest switching to QtCreator or Clion. I personally prefer QtCreator since 1) it has a fakeVim key binding and 2) it is better at loading symbols and giving autocomplete suggestion.
Try this Xcode plugin: Backlight for Xcode
You can use Alcatraz to easily install this plugin, another way of installing it is to:
- Download source
- Build code
- Restart Xcode
- (Check Github page on how to further configure the plugin)
