vimboss

233 You can mix using markers with a number and without a number. A useful way of
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:
diff changeset
234 doing this is to use numbered markers for large folds, and unnumbered markers
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:
diff changeset
235 locally in a function. For example use level one folds for the sections of
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:
diff changeset
236 your file like "structure definitions", "local variables" and "functions".
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:
diff changeset
237 Use level 2 markers for each definition and function, Use unnumbered markers
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:
diff changeset
238 inside functions. When you make changes in a function to split up folds, you
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
vimboss
parents:

239 don't have to renumber the markers.

254 know what to do.
3fc0f57ecb91 updated for version 7.0001
