I use tcsh, and I set my evnironment variable EXINIT like this in my 
.tcshrc file:


# vi startup stuff
  setenv EXINIT 'map g G\
  set ignorecase showmatch showmode nu ai shiftwidth=4'


The nu does the numbering, the other things do other things I 
find useful.

You could also do it manually after entering vi by using the

:set nu

command while in the command mode.  To turn off numbering use

:set nonu
