Current line number (may be beginner question)

[makeit]

When I paused/stopped printing, how can I know a current line number of the Gcode file (Ascii)?
If Printrun indicates paused/stopped line number of the G-code file, it would be very useful.

Type in the following:

!print self.p.queueindex

I'll add it to the statusbar at some point when paused. Now it's only
shown when printing

Going further, I guess it would be great to improve Printrun to be able to sort-of recover from a major print failure (such as an external reset of the electronics). Basically right now when connection is lost, you have to disconnect/reconnect, which resets the print queue, which prevents you from restarting the print (while even though the lookahead buffer (Marlin) might be lost, you can very well rehome X/Y on the printer, set Z back from the gcode or home Z as well, fix E and start from around the break).

Several people have asked for this, and I don't have a chance to work on
it for another week. YOu want to try yourself at it?

Yeah, I'm working on it :)
