Custom folding regions for Perl plugin

[stfedosov]

Dear Perl plugin developers,

It'd be nice to have a feature of custom regions (similar to Java) in Perl plugin: #region {descripton} .. #endregion When you deal with a huge Perl codebase, sometimes it's extremely hard to navigate efficiently. This feature would help to fold some certain regions and do the code markup if necessary.

Thank you!

It will be really great to have this feature in Perl plugin.

Yes. I also would like to see that working. And also in the form of tag:

... some code ...
# <editor-fold desc="Custom folding">
... some code ...
# </editor-fold>
... some code ...

See the documentation here.

Is there some wide-used standard for syntax? Perl-specific or language-agnostic?

[Ashark]

The only thing that is language specific is the way how comments are made, i.e. with "#" or with "//". See here.
