Description: folding-editor minor mode for Emacs
This package provides an Emacs minor mode for folding (hiding) custom
- regions. It also provides an Isearch interface to the folds.
- Folding-mode can treat each document as a tree, where each branch is
- bounded by the special markers '{{{' and '}}}', and branches can be
- nested, thus creating a hierarchical structure. Special markers are
- placed the beginning of line and are prefixed by the appropriate
- comment marker. For example, in C++ mode, the beginning marker is:
- // {{{
+ regions. It also provides an Isearch interface to the folds. Folds
+ can be nested hierarchically.
.
- Folding-mode is similar to a general-purpose Outline-mode or Org-mode
- It can CLOSE a fold so that only initial special marker and optional
- comment are visible visible, or it can ENTER a fold, hiding all text
- outside of the target.

The upstream maintainers of folding-mode do not recommend exclusively
relying on folding-mode for code layout and navigation. Hideshow and
Imenu are more appropriate for folding code at a per-function() level
of granularity. In particular Imenu is more useful for this because
it parses function indexes. Folding mode is most useful for dividing
- code into broad operations and organising stubs while prototyping.
