Hello fellow org-mode users,

Using org-mode has made some things for me intolerable.  I watched  
Carsten Dominik's talk at google where he articulated his desire for a  
simple interface for folding and unfolding.  I became very unhappy  
with the hideshow.el interface for hiding and showing code.  I don't  
know how anyone can bother to use these key bindings.

;;   hs-hide-block       C-c @ C-h     or C-c S-2 C-h   (C-c C-2 C-h  
would be an improvement)
;;   hs-show-block       C-c @ C-s     or C-c S-2 C-h

I endeavored to make hideshow.el work more like org-mode and created  
my extension hideshow-org.el.  Now TAB hides and shows code blocks  
when no indentation is necessary, but indents otherwise.  So for those  
of you who work a lot on code, I encourage you to give it a try.  The  
code and a little screencast that shows it in action is available here:

Thanks again for org-mode.  It's fundamentally changed the way I  
relate with emacs.

-Shane

  Wow, these would have made good examples for my talk.  Disastrous keys,
  invalidating the entire point of folding.

  This looks like a huge improvement.  Congratulations, maybe you should
  talk to Thien-Thi and Dan, if they are interested to incorporate this
  into hideshow as an option.

    Thank you very much for the kind words.  I'd be happy to suggest the  
    idea after I've spent some more time with the code and the majority of  
    its kinks have surfaced.  :)
