Having read the OP, I'll second Eric's vote for hideshow-org. It's a better solution for folding functions. However, the combination of org/outline-minor-mode/Tassilo's code works well for splitting a file into foldable sections. Incidentally, you can use both of these methods at the same time; they don't conflict too much. --l
