description

:call F() This function lets you see all the lines in a file that contain a given regular-expression. The remaining lines are folded with the manual method, and can be opened to see some 'nearby' line. If no regular expression is specified, the last regular expression specified for search is utilized. The idea comes from the mainframe ISPF editor. After you get your folds, you can give commands affecting only the folded lines using: :folddoclosed or use: :folddoopen to operate only on the visible lines. zo   to open a fold a bit zozj to open a fold a bit and leave the cursor on the fold line zO   to open a fold completely zE   to open all folds zf{motion} to close folders 'a bit more' (or to create folders) If you have 2 adjacent folders, zf<ENTER> will 'merge' them. In the same way a visible line can be 'added' to a nearby folder. :call FA() This function is similar to F() above, except instead of typing in a regular expression, the current word the cursor is over is used as the regular expression. The function FA() has been prepared and added by: Ken Huisman - [email protected] Suggested mappings: :map <F5> :call F()<CR> :map <F6> :normal zozj<CR> :<Up> to recall the macro after having executed it once editing the "f.vim" file itself: try giving as an expression  nfold try giving as an expression  as try giving as an expression   as     [that is: ' as' ] try giving as an expression  let try giving as an expression  ^": try giving as an expression  :fun\|:endf try giving as an expression  :endf try giving as an expression  ^:endf for remarks, complaints, etc. write to: [email protected] version 05042001
