I don't know what language you're using, but folding is usually set up for things like functions and loops, so that's helpful, too. But I mention it because if you have to add the above markers into an existing language grammar that already has markers set up, you'll need to do them like this:<br><br>foldingStartMarker = 'otherMarker|\{([^\/]+)\}';<br><br>Note the vertical pipe in between the new addition and the existing marker; that's the regex "or".<br><br>Also, worth noting that TextMate only matches folds if the start and stop markers are at the same indent level, not merely if the marker is matched. You might get some interesting folding results with the additions combined with goofy indentation.<br><br>+dru<br><br><br>On Jul 12, 2011, at 11:12 AM, John Relosa wrote:<br><br>Hello,<br><br>Excuse my newbie question but I am trying to do custom folding in the language that I am working on and can't figure out how.<br>Comments in this language start and end with { comment..... } Anything else is compilable.<br><br>Is there a way to specify something like<br><br>{Start of code block}<br><br>code<br>.<br>.<br>.<br>.<br>{/End of code block}<br><br>Thanks<br>John<br><br>_______________________________________________<br>textmate mailing list<br><a ymailto="mailto:textmate@lists.macromates.com" href="mailto:textmate@lists.macromates.com">textmate@lists.macromates.com</a><mailto:<a ymailto="mailto:textmate@lists.macromates.com" href="mailto:textmate@lists.macromates.com">textmate@lists.macromates.com</a>><br><span><a target="_blank" href="http://lists.macromates.com/listinfo/textmate">http://lists.macromates.com/listinfo/textmate</a></span><br><br><br><br>-<br></div></div><div style="position:fixed"></div> </div></body></html>
