Dear Maintainer,

The following provides Vim folding for diffoscope text output:

[[[
function! Diffoscope_txt_foldexpr(lnum)
	let offset = stridx(getline(a:lnum), '├── ')
	if offset >= 0
		return '>' . (1+offset/6)
	else
		return '='
	endif
endfun
set foldmethod=expr foldexpr=Diffoscope_txt_foldexpr(v:lnum)
]]]

Please consider adding this to the documentation.  A better would be to
wrap this as a proper ftplugin or plugin, if somebody steps up to figure
out and write the needed glue code.

Cheers,

Daniel

thanks

Hi Daniel,

Indeed.

Without that, we can't really classify this bug as having a patch
though, so dropping that tag for now. :)

Holger suggested on IRC that "the needed glue code" would be integration
with vim-addon-manager.

I believe  :help new-filetype  is the relevant upstream help topic.
