Please edit the wiki or reply here if the tip should be improved. Yes, I did find my way to this stuff after comments re Tim's post and have been playing with the different methods - I seem to not be able to get the +/- extra lines with the context displays and I get a column of single digit numbers down the left hand side when I remove the folds - but I am not confident enough to say that I am not doing something silly . . and that stuff is probably more than I need just at the moment anyway.
