There's a function for that:

This is way simpler than searching for it in the huge monolithic
vimrc.
Samir, your irony gave me a very good belly laugh!
"simpler" was probably not the right choice of word. "easier" is what I
meant to say.
If I want to change filetype specific settings I can hit <leader>ef and
I'll get a new split with a small file containing settings only relevant
to the current filetype regardless of what that filetype is.
With folding, the attractively monolithic .vimrc is visually small.
Structure makes everything readily accessible - without any need for
complex functions to get to a swarm of files.
Of course, folding is great, and everything in my vimrc is folded as
well.
Still, you are most welcome to do it your way.
And so are you to disagree with me.
Samir
