I'm trying to get a better understanding of the *.dsl files as disassembled by the iasl program. Those files looks like:

/*

 * a comment

 */

Stuff

{

    More Stuff

    {

        Beer (a, b) // another comment

    }

    Hmm (mmm)

    {

        Package (0x04)

        {

            0xFFFF

        },



        Package (0x04)

        {

            0xFFFF

        }

    }

    Meh (x, y)

}

This syntax should be really easy for a text viewer / editor. Since I'm just viewing these files, the editing feature is not needed. The file has 11k lines which makes it more difficult to scan for text.

Is there a lightweight text viewer with folding capabilities? Both CLI and GUI solutions are welcome.

Addition: I would like to have the next features too:

• shortcuts to jump from the child to the parent (e.g. Beer to More Stuff or the { next to it)


• quick search (till now, I used less in which I can search by pressing / followed by the search term and Enter. The Firefox "on the bottom search" bar is something that I would like to see for a GUI program)


• bonus: hiding blocks of text

The purpose of the viewer is getting me through the text file faster.
