Or, with perl

#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;

my $i=1;
while(<>) {
	print $i++, " ", $_;
}
----- Cut here -----
Or, in C
----- Cut here -----
#include <stdio.h>

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
	int i=1;
	int c;

	printf("%10d ", i++);
	while((c=getc(stdin))!=EOF) {
		putc(c, stdout);
		if(c=='\n') {
			printf("%10d ", i++);
		}
	}
	
}

Or with awk
