Perhaps my web search terms ask the wrong questions, but I've not

My use is python coding. A module (*.py file) will have multiple
classes
defined, each class beginning in column 1 while all following lines
are
indented (4 spaces here). When I want to see what classes are in a
buffer
being able to see only class names, then returning to view all lines,
is
quite useful.
In the 1980s I used a DOS programming editor called 'MultiEdit' that
had
this capability and it was really useful. I'm sure that emacs can do
it yet
I've not found how.
Please point me to resources where I can learn how to do this.
It sounds like you would benefit from some python-specific emacs code.
This looks relevant:
