Adding a new line after a fold

Question

At the end of a file I have these lines, line 19 is actually a beginning of a 4 line fold.

Now if I want to add a new line after the fold, i.e a new line number 24, I usually type 'A' and enter which takes me to the beginning of a new line. But this fails when I have a fold. What happens is vim opens the fold and I get directed to the end of the first line.

What should be done to begin a new line without opening the fold

Also is there any better way to open a few line at the end of the document, what I do is I type 'A' that takes me to the end of the line and then press 'Enter'.

Thank you for your time.

Answer 1

Use the o command to add a new line below the current one. That will work with folds, and insert a line below the fold.

See :help o for more details on this command.
