Thanks. I used to get this maybe once a month but I figured it was
something wrong with my setup since it stopped when I rebooted.
I've tracked it down now and posted a new version (0.2.5).

There was a spurious comma in that file from somewhere.

Done. It will fold more if the elsif/else is on the very next line,
and still folds all branches of an if statement if the cursor is on
the "end if" line.

Instead of that I've just detected mouse clicks on the fold margin
and added a new flag to edita.ini, "Permanent Fold Margin", 
default False, so that there is always somewhere to click on.
( You'll have to run 0.2.5 and quit before amending edita.ini. ) 

I don't think there is a problem with the fact that I have used > 
rather than + to indicate folds which can be expanded (I chose that 
because it is more visually distinct to * which I use for bookmarks). 
I also don't think '-' is a good idea since Edita can fold any set of 
lines (just block select them before pressing Ctrl -); I once 
estimated that win32lib with 34,000 lines could theoretically be 
folded over 600 million different ways blink
