I would like to map a key so I can quick close all folds but keep unfolded on current cursor and keep cursor's position too.
Through :h fold I can use zMzv but it can't keep cursor's position.

    Oddly enough, I tried zMzv today and it kept the correct cursor position... curious.

  • I should be more clear about this, I mapped to a key so that it will contain <CR> at the end and reset cursor to next line.

  • Why do you need the <CR> though? I.e., why doesn’t for example nnoremap <leader>zo zMzv do the trick?

You can set a mark at the beginning of your mapping and then jump there at the end. For example:

nnoremap <leader>zv :normal mazMzv`a<CR>

Postscript: This was posted when I was merely an apprentice Vim Ninja rather than the MVN (Master Vim Ninja) you see before you today. Of course, in the <ahem> normal course of things one would be wasteful to create such an nmap when nno <leader>zv mazMzv`a is equivalent. Funny thing, though...OP says the less enlightened version was the only one to solve his problem. Personally I can't reproduce even the cursor moving part so I just take them at their word and this answer lives on; a signpost aside the road on which I journeyed to top of the mountain.

    I am curious if am I missing something? If I press zx , zv , zMzv, etc.. the folds change but the cursor does not move. So I don't understand why the mark is necessary.

  • If you map zx to a key: nnoremap <space>zx :zx<CR> for i.e, ` zx` will change cursor's position.
