'''Folding''' is a way to hide and show text in an emacs buffer, i.e. to do code folding. For example, we can do the same thing than with org-mode but with source code.

You may look at the differences between narrowing and hiding text in Emacs : http://wikemacs.org/index.php/Emacs_Terminology#Narrow_and_widen

[[outline]] is a built in mode to cycle visibility and edit the code structure. You should check it out !

= Evil users =

[[evil]]-mode users also have a built-in solution: use '''za''' to toggle visibility, '''zc''' (close), '''zm''' (close all), '''zr''' (open all).

== Yafolding ==

[https://github.com/zenozeng/yafolding.el yafolding], in [[melpa]], is based on indentation.

== Origami ==

[https://github.com/gregsexton/origami.el origami] works well with languages that use braces to delimit blocks.

		+	It works with headings, so it is more geared towards documents than code. For example, it works very well with markdown documents to hide or show document sections (even if the TAB key on a markdown header already does this). We can also move sections around. For example, move a h1 section and all its subsections up, with one keypresse ('''outline-move-subtree-up''').
		+
		+	Once you enabled the minor mode ('''outline-minor-mode'''), you can discover commands with the menu entry.

+[[evil]]-mode users have pre-defined keys: use '''za''' to toggle visibility, '''zc''' (close), '''zm''' (close all), '''zr''' (open all). They are an interface to other folding packages, most notably hideshow. The value of the variable <code>evil-fold-list</code> determines which backend is used for which major or minor modes, and what functions are available for those backends.
