Hiya,

Does anyone have any pointers on how to achieve code-folding in Emacs
for Common Lisp source?

Something like:

(defun foo (x)
 ...)

when the DEFUN symbol is clicked .. or, if I click a LET

(let ((foo1 baz1)
       (foo2 baz2))
  ...)

Anyone have some ideas?

With GNU Emacs:

See 'hideshow' minor mode.

in a Lisp buffer do:   M-x hs-minor-mode

Oh man, this is awesome, thanks!

And I don't even have to hack it to fold up stuff inside curly
brackets either.
(A string processing macro that I wrote).

Really, guys -- why don't we just add some boot code to Emacs and be
done with it?
:)
