subject: ANY IDEA`S FOR `FOLDING`

MK>Clemens,

MK>You should look for the "customized EPM" package from the
EPM guys.  Look
MK>for file CSTEPM.ZIP at watson.ibm.com or ftp-os2.cdrom.com or CompuServe.
MK>This has code folding (source and .EX).  The method they use is to change
MK>the font of the folded code to be microscopic.  This has its drawbacks, as
MK>your cursor can get "lost" in the folded code.  Another
idea I had was to
MK>move folded code to an invisible file (or, as you say, an array).  This
MK>means you have to hook into defsave, though.

MK>Good luck...

For myself, and the benefit of others who don't know ...

What is folding anyway ? .. sounds interesting ..

While I'm on the topic I have a couple of EPM problems that really annoy me...
First, how can I get the thing to start up with EXPAND OFF. ? I hate the code
expansion because my fingers automatically do it for me. I mean it cuts in when
I have already typed parts of what it is expanding. It forces me to shut it off
each time I use the editor, or it forces me to make a mental effort to be aware
of it's presence. The second problem on a PS/2 I use at the office is that the
CUA acclerators option has no effect. I am used to typing things like ALT-F to
get the files menu, but I am forced to use the mouse instead. With CUA
Accelerators either checked or unchecked they do not operate at all. I have not
had this particular problem with EPM on any other machine. Re-installed and
still had no effect. I have even taken a good look at the INI files and found
nothing that would look like the source of the trouble.
