Ah, so it limits the opening of a nested fold down *toward* the location of the cursor rather than down *from* the cursor. I wonder if there is a way to limit the opening of folds down from the cursor? The normal-mode command zr for opening of folds is global in scope (meaning throughout the current window, not throughout all windows & buffers). -- -- You received this message from the "vim_use" maillist.
