How can I hide function definitions in Vim?

Question

Not seeing function definitions all over the place would make my code much more readable.

Is there a way to hide them in vim?

You're looking for folding.

It allows you to "fold" lines of text into a single line and unfold them later.

I was hoping for an automatic solution, as manually folding and unfolding can be tedious after a while. – octosquidopus Dec 08 '14 at 14:04

The linked SO question has some good suggestions. In particular, `:set foldmethod=syntax` or `:set foldmethod=indent` with `foldlevel` will automate this. – Praxeolitic Dec 08 '14 at 14:06
