In ISPF/PDF it is displayed on the left and shows the line number; ICCF it is displayed on the right side of the screen and contains equal signs.

where nn is the number of lines affected. For Show Lines, in Xedit when nn is positive the first lines of an excluded group are shown; when negative, the last lines. The default for nn is 1 except for the ISPF/PDF shift commands, where it is 2.
In Xedit, nn may precede the line command.
Xedit allows the user to mark a line with a symbolic name (xxxx) which may be used to refer to that line in primary (command line) commands.
