Those of us fortunate enough to be using emacs for J have a "code-folding mode" available to us - http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/FoldingMode - though I have not used it (and it requires tagging the source with indicators to show the start and end of folding regions). Also, the J-mode in emacs has syntax highlighting.
