QPlainTextEdit * edit = ...
QTextCursor cursor = edit->textCursor();
int linenumber = cursor->blockNumber();
int linedif = goto - linenumber;
if (linedif < 0)
	cursor->movePosition(QTextCursor::PreviousBlock, QTextCursor::MoveAnchor, -linedif);
else
	cursor->movePosition(QTextCursor::NextBlock, QTextCursor::MoveAnchor, linedif);


That's uncompile pseudo-code :)

Seems complicated, eh? That's how I figured out to do it. Maybe there's some shortcut...
