缺省打开project.vim中的所有折叠

Question

When opening the project window for the first time in vim, all folds are closed. I find this very annoying. Is there any way to have them all open by default? I've read trough all of the documentation for project.vim but couldn't find a setting for this.

Answer 1

Put this in your .vimrc to set all folds to open when you open a file:

set foldlevel=99

That will cause all 99th level folds to be closed, which I hope is none of them. If you have more than 99 levels of folds, you have a 99 problems joke.

Answer 2

How about an autocmd?

Assuming you use the default projects filename, you could do something like this:

autocmd BufEnter .vimprojects silent! %foldopen!

If you want to maintain the cursor position, you could either clobber a mark or use a variable:

autocmd BufEnter .vimprojects let PreFoldPosition = getpos('.') | silent! %foldopen! | call setpos('.', PreFoldPosition)

It seems that project.vim creates the buffer and then adds the contents. As a result of this, the autocmds above only work on the second and subsequent times the project window is opened. The only way I know of to get round this is to edit project.vim and put silent! %foldopen! silent! %foldopen! near the end of the function s:Project(filename) . It might be worth sending an email to the author and asking whether he could add a means of doing this (with an option) in the standard distribution.

Answer 3

I know this question is kind of old, but another solution is to create a function in your .bashrc (or similar) to do the following:

vim +"Project $1" +'silent! %foldopen!'

For instance, in my .bashrc, I have the following:

export PROJECT_DIR="$HOME/devel/projects"

project()
{
    if test -z "$1"
    then
        echo "Usage: project <project name>"
    else
        if [ ! -e "$PROJECT_DIR/$1" ]
        then
            echo "Project not found. Available projects:"
            find $PROJECT_DIR/* | xargs -l basename
        else
            vim +"Project $PROJECT_DIR/$1" +'silent! %foldopen!'
        fi
    fi
}

_project()
{
    local cur
    local PROJECTS=`find $PROJECT_DIR/projects/* | xargs -l basename`
    COMPREPLY=()
    cur=${COMP_WORDS[COMP_CWORD]}
    COMPREPLY=( $( compgen -W "$PROJECTS" -- $cur ) )
}
complete -F _project project

Which allows me to simply issue the 'project' command and tab-complete the name.
