Where?  I don't see any {{{,}}} fold markers under Functions/.

The diff hunks for _bpython and _pandoc look good, but I don't agree
with removing the fold markers from _cdrdao.  The fold markers in that
file can't be inferred from machine parsing, or even from naïve human
parsing; they were placed by a human familiar with the file.  Please
keep them.

If we do keep fold markers, then of course users of other editors are
welcome to add equivalent markings for their editors.  I don't think
that will grow unwieldy (and if it does, we can deal with it then).

If the fold markers interfere with "Jump to the matching curly brace"
functionality in editors that don't ignore matches in comments, the fold
markers could be changed to something other than curly braces.

Cheers,

Daniel
