Thanks, Dan. Both this method and the one using invisible markers and mkview are intriguing. I'll read up on them. Will probably have further questions after that. > http://www.linux.com/learn/tutorials/442438-vim-tips-folding-fun > > Word-wrapping: See :h wrap, :h textwidth And thanks for both of these. It appears that what I wanted in the way of word wrapping is [1] not possible except by fiddling with the code of the executable and [2] not essential for the purpose I had in mind, i.e., making all text within a certain range of a given line "disappear under" that line, as a subtopic would under a topic in an outline. I can get what I want, minus indentation, by folding on all the other lines first, then folding on all the lines, indluding the first. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Eric Weir Decatur, GA USA [email protected] -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
