In my current vim setup I have set foldmethod=syntax
, however whenever I save my file it refolds anything I had opened. Any ideas?
FWIW this is my current vimrc
Vim uses the same movement commands to define folds. Folding also works in visual mode. If you enter visual mode using v or V , then select a few lines of text using the movement keys, and type zf , Vim will create a fold comprising those lines. Another option is to specify a range in command mode.
To expand the lines, put the cursor over the fold and hit spacebar (in vim terminology, this deletes the fold).
It maps alt+1 to fold the first python indent level (class definitions and functions), alt+2 to fold the second level (class methods), and alt+0 to unfold everything. It makes sure it only folds one level and doesn't fold any of the nested sub levels. You can still use za to toggle folding for the current block.
This behavior is normal. Vim's default is not to remember which code you had folded vs. unfolded from one session to the next. You can save your current folds; when you finish editing a file, before exiting vim, enter the command :mkview
. When you next open the file, if you enter :loadview
, it will restore your folds. If you want this to happen automatically, add this code to your vimrc
augroup remember_folds
autocmd!
autocmd BufWinLeave * mkview
autocmd BufWinEnter * silent! loadview
augroup END
If you want more features, this plugin does the same thing http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=4021.
Update: sorry, my original code didn't work. It should work now.
