Hi Mr. Chase;
Just for future reference, you'll likely want to "Reply to all"
(or "Reply to list" depending on your mailer) so that your
answers get copied to the list. This allows you to tap all the
wisdom of the list, not just my meager offerings. Additionally,
it helps bypass spam filters...I have email addresses configured
for each of the mailing lists I'm on---if you email this address
and don't also CC the mailing list (and aren't in my whitelist of
regulars on the list), my mail filters automatically mark the
message as suspect spam, dumping the message into my junk folder
at the mercy of my schedule for cleaning it out. Or I could be
on holiday and not get your email for a week as you languish,
thinking I'm ignoring you. :)
You asked, "What is your foldmethod"
set foldmethod=indent
set foldlevel=0
Okay...since your foldmethod isn't Manual, you can't delete the
fold, but must rather just open the fold.
You also asked 'command line or other' ?
Yes, command line. E.g.
vi +205 source_file
Ah.
You should be able to change that to
vi +205 -c "norm cO" source
I tried getting an autocmd to do it for me, but I exhausted my
vim mojo. Perhaps one of the other brains on the list can get
something to work. I tried variations of
au BufEnter * if foldlevel(line('.')) > 0 | exec 'norm zO' | endif
with a host of events (BufEnter, BufRead, WinEnter, GUIEnter,
etc) but with no joy. I also tried "l" ("ell", not the number
one) instead of "zO", to no avail.
All said, however, I'm not sure that typing
-c "norm cO"
on the command line gains you anything over one press of the ell
key which will do the same thing. ;-)

Hey, I drive by you nearly daily as my commute passes right
through Plano on my way to Richardson! It's a small world. :)
