vim-sort-folds

Sorting folds is way too tedious in vanilla vim... We're forced to:

1. Join the lines of each individual fold into one
2. Run :sort on them
3. Split the lines back up

vim-sort-folds aims to help by introducing a function, sortfolds#SortFolds, to sort the folds of a visual selection all at once.

Since folds can be created in a variety of ways, this can be especially handy for sorting arbitrary groups of content based on their first line.

Usage

1. Visually select the folds you'd like to sort
2. :call sortfolds#SortFolds()

If you find yourself doing this frequently enough, you can bind it to a command and speed things up even further!

Installation

vim-sort-folds is compatible with most plugin managers. Just drop something like the following into your .vimrc:

• vim-plug: Plug 'brianrodri/vim-sort-folds'

NOTE: This plugin (unapologetically) requires +python3.
