I use code folding in other editors when editing HTML. For example, I'll fold up a complex table so I can copy the whole thing easily. I imagine it would be useful for XML too. As for Java, I might find it useful, or maybe if the code is too complex it means I should refactor the code, not hide it :) Erik _______________________________________________ Eap-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.intellij.com/mailman/listinfo/eap-list
