Thanks for the reply, actually these 2 commands are just examples from
what I really would like to do. In more detail, I have a function:

function! ReFold()
    syn off | syn on
    set foldmethod=expr
    set foldexpr=0
    syn region myFold start='{' end='}' transparent fold
    syntax sync fromstart
    set foldmethod=syntax
    echo
endfunction

And whenever I call this function in a window it also effects the
other windows. So my real question (sorry if I should have explained
it better in the first email) is how to make the function ReFold act
locally.

Whcih language is this ?
