vim is a folding editor.  everything inbetween the markers appear as one li=
ne
as something like

   +--  3 lines: >> --------------------------------------------

in otherwords each class in my solution looks, to me, as

   class Foo
   +--  n lines: >> ------------
   end

and each method likewise.  if you don't use folding i highly reccomend it -
folds can be cut, pasted, operated on, etc.  and, of course, it makes 10,00=
0
source file a breeze to navigate.

cheers.
