In this video, we look at folding text. Folding text is just a way of hiding text when you don't need to see it. To see which foldmethod is being used you can type :set foldmethod or the shortcut :set fdm We using the manual foldmethod on this video. In this video, I create a fold by selecting text using the upper case "V" to put us in visual line mode, using j or k, I select the text, then I create the fold by pressing lower case "z" then lower case "f". To open a fold you can type lower case "z" then lower case "o" You can close a fold by typing lower case "z" lower case "c" from any line in the folded text. The folds will need to be saved in the directory .vim/views, and that directory may need to be created. Placing these lines in your .vimrc file will save the folds in the .vim/views directory: autocmd BufWinLeave . mkview autocmd BufWinEnter . silent loadview Folds can be deleted pressing lower case "z" then lower case "d" See the complete Vim playlist at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1lzXr-MztOU See the complete Vim playlist in a single video at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3G6kAEvbv2A Website link: https://thefrugalcomputerguy.com/linux/seriespg.php?ser=10002
