[Vim-latex-devel] Re: A bug in templates.vim

[Zhang L. <zl...@ls...>]

Hi, Srinath,

I have modified folding.vim (see attachment) to create fold
items based on some lists. Since it is not easy to define a
clean syntax to cover all situations with a single list,
I have created three separate lists for folding environments
(g:Tex_FoldedEnvironments), commands with a single argument 
(g:Tex_FoldedCommands), and sectioning commands
(g:Tex_FoldedSections), respectively. Fold items not falling
into these categories are handled directly as before.

The handling of sectioning commands is implemented using a
recursive function (FoldSections()). The limitation on the
recursion depth shouldn't be a problem because we only have
a limited number of sectioning commands.

I have also added '<<<' and '>>>' as special markers for
users to manually fold a region.

The default settings of these lists are enclosed within
"if exists('g:Tex_Foldedxxxxx') ... endif", thus users
can set their own default values for them in any
startup scripts (like ~/.vimrc). E.g.,
       let g:Tex_FoldedEnvironments = ''
will supress folding of environments.

Please check the code when you have time.

Thanks,
LB
