Another current conversation about emacs & elisp programming got me
thinking again....
There is some mode in emacs which can selectively and flexibly
"collapse" and "expand" selected blocks of text; that is, make it/them
visible to the user or not display them. It was a long time ago, but I
believe that was org-mode.
Would it be possible to integrate that functionality into
html-helper-mode so that chapters could be selectively collapsed or
expanded? For example, I might have:
<h1>Chapter One</h1>
<p>This is a paragraph. There would be many of these.
</p>
<h1>Chapter Two</h1>
<p>Paragraph in Chapter II. blah blah blah
</p>
<h1>Chapter Three</h1>
<p>More paragraphs for this chapter also.
</p>
Then I'd want to not see the contents of chapter 2 only, like this:
<h1>Chapter One</h1>
<h1>Chapter Two</h1>
<p>Paragraph in Chapter II. blah blah blah
</p>
<h1>Chapter Three</h1>
Of course all the text for all chapters would still be there in the
file, just not visible in emacs. I could still pull the file into a
browser and see the entire thing.
I'm fairly certain this would be possible. The question is, I guess,
what would be the easiest way to do it?
Much thanks.
