How can I let TextMate show line numbers when I'm coding C++?

Press Cmd-Opt-L
or select View » Gutter » Line Numbers.
I don't think it's possible to automatically enable display of line numbers dependent on your current language. But with the default keyboard shortcut this command is easy enough to reach.

For users stumbling on this question who want to actually insert numbers in front of each line, the following will help:
- Bundles > Text > Add Line Numbers to Selection
- Applies
"cat -n|expand -8"
to selection/entire document
- Applies
- Text -> Filter through command... allows more flexibility. e.g.:
perl -pe 's/^/sprintf("%2d ",$.)/e'
