My guess would be that the syntax syncing gets out of whack which takes the folding out with it as it falls over. You can tell Vim that you want syntax synchronization to start from the beginning of the file, but this comes with performance-related issues. :help :syn-sync particularly this section: :help :syn-sync-first shows how to force vim to sync up from the beginning of the file. -tim --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
