Feature Request: Folding by indentation in plain text #218

Closed ghost closed 7 months ago

ghost commented 7 months ago

I often take very-long notes. So "folding by indentation in plain text" is a very useful feature.

After studing in long time, I found that many people also need it. Specially, notepad2 supported it. It should only change a file: LexNull.cxx https://github.com/zufuliu/notepad2/blob/main/scintilla/lexers/LexNull.cxx

Could anyone please review and update the feature?

Thank you very much.

Notepad++ can use https://github.com/ScintillaOrg/lexilla/blob/master/lexers/LexIndent.cxx, which is same as notepad2's LexNull.cxx except empty line handing differences see https://sourceforge.net/p/scintilla/bugs/1932/ and https://sourceforge.net/p/scintilla/feature-requests/1174/

SciTE also uses LexIndent.cxx: image

So if I set my lexer style to "Indent" I will get folding functionality?
