Select range of lines in Notepad++ using line numbers

In response to a question in this post we proposed the following method to select a range of lines in Notepad++ using the line numbers:

1. Press Ctrl + G, type the start line and hit Enter to go to the start line.
2. Then go to the menu, click on Edit and then Begin/End select.
3. Press again Ctrl + G, and type the end line number and hit Enter to go to it.
4. Back to the menu, click on Edit and then Begin/End select once more.
   By now you will have your range of lines selected.
