| - It seems to me that the default folds set up by the C syntax file work great! Just setting foldmethod=syntax should do the trick. This allows folding of /*...*/ comments as well. Since it is built into the syntax file, the below is unnecessary, since it already applies all the right groups. I'm not sure if Java and Cpp syntax files also do this or not, but I assume they do. The syn region myFold start="{" end="}" transparent fold method does not like to work when you have other syn groups for {,}. I found this annoying (as I like my colored braces) so I figured a pure marker method would work nearly as well, and it does, at least for my uses. Experiment with the "matchgroup", "contains", "containedin", "keepline", and "extend" options to fix this. I'm sure there is a way to make it work the way you want it. Using syntax folding is certainly the way to go, since that's exactly what you're trying to do here, and you can define multiple fold groups (e.g., folding not only on {..}, but also /*...*/ and #if...#endif). One way that does work with matchgroup is simply to create ~/.vim/after/syntax/c.vim and insert the following line: syntax region cBlock matchgroup=Operator start="{" end="}" contains=ALLBUT,cCurlyError,@cParenGroup,cErrInParen,cCppParen,cErrInBracket,cCppBracket,cCppString,@Spell fold Then you may proceed to set highlights on Operator as usual. Hopefully everything works just did v0.03 and I have run out of time, enjoy! outlinetoggle.vim from my plugin dir>>> " vim:ff=unix ts=4 ss=4 " vim60:fdm=marker " \file outlinetoggle.vim " " \brief Vim-Tip #333: Syntax-based folding for c/c++/java " " \author author: Kartik Agaram as of Vim: 6.0 " \author Mangled by Feral " \date Tue, 24 Sep 2002 05:44 Pacific Daylight Time " \version $Id$ " Version: 0.03 " History: " [Feral:267/02@05:43] v0.03: " saves the old marker method now.

As is the whole concept of easy folding. I popped this into my .vimrc: map :OUTLINE This makes F12 switch in and out of outline (folded) mode. You could probably use autocommand to make the folding happen when you open something you want to fold. I wish I had same thing for comments /* */, but foldermarker does not support regular expression. How about adding alternative foldermarkers? So, we may write: set foldermarker1={,} set foldermarker2=/*,*/ To me it sounds like a cool feature. Please, check more simple implementation and it works with mouse, I tried to reproduce Visual Studio C# editor :) It looks almost the same. This is optimum combination to work with Java files. set foldmarker={,} set foldmethod=marker set foldtext=substitute(getline(v:foldstart),'{.*','{...}',) set foldcolumn=4 set foldlevelstart=1 ostrygun Combined feral's tip with the fold columns based on tip comment by ostrygun.

To toggle folding, type :FOLD. Remember you can use :zE to expand all folds. It would be cool if there was some way of folding the previous line for those of us that write code like int function(....) { .... } so that the function name was the folded highlight. you can always do set foldtext=v:folddashes.substitute(getline(v:foldstart-1),'/\\*\\\|\\*/\\\|{{{\\d\\=','','g') to have the highlighting be the previous lines text. zo = Open a fold zc = Close a fold (The fold region must already exist) zfm = 'zf' means to create a fold of movement 'm' So, if i had a block of code: if( predicate ) { someFunction(); } If you move the cursor to one of the curly braces, in command mode you type 'zf%', then you will end up with a fold looking something like this: if( predicate ) 3 lines: {The "3 lines: {" will be highlighted, indicating that you have created a fold. Also, "3 lines" tells you how many lines were folded. Just a note to all fold users, :set fmr={,} :set fdm=marker Is a quick and easy way to allow folding of anything between angle brackets. then zM closes all folds and zR opens them all, so I don't know why you need this elaborate solution. Since no one else has suggested it: za == toggle fold I find it much easier to just always use 'za' to open/close folds and let vim figure out to open or close, rather than figuring out to use 'zc' or 'zo' on my own.
