Code Folding for Gedit

A simple plugin that adds keyboard-based code folding to Gedit.

Installation

Unix/Linux

Simplest: Move folding.plugin and folding.py into ~/.local/share/gedit/plugins
More convenient:

cd ~/.local/share/gedit/plugins
git clone https://github.com/aeischeid/gedit-folding

You can replace aeischeid by other developer - pick active one: https://github.com/aeischeid/gedit-folding/network

Then

In Gedit, go to Edit → Preferences → Plugins to enable the plugin.

Windows

Note: As stated in IRC conversation at #gedit public channel, gedit3 is not ready for Windows (yet). Eventually this installation section will be updated when gedit3 supports Windows.

Usage

Alt-Z on selected lines will collapse them
Alt-Z on an indented block's top line will collapse that block
Alt-Z on a folded block will expand it
Alt-X will collapse all blocks on the deepest indention column (you can keep pressing Alt-X until all indention levels are folded)
Shift-Alt-X will expand all the collapsed blocks
