If I have a large begin_src block it can make reading the surrounding 
text difficult, as the reader has to keep paging up and down. Ideally it 
would be possible to fold src blocks, but I can see that would be 
inconsistent with org's structure. I could put the block in a draw, but 
was interested in what others do.

Ian.

Pressing TAB (bound to org-cycle) on a #+BEGIN_SRC line folds the code
block for me - not sure whether there is a special setting to allow
that, but a quick look at my config did not uncover anything.

Thanks for that. When I start Emacs with no config file, it works for me 
too. Must be some setting in my config that is stopping it working.

#+startup: hideblocks

(equivalently: org-hide-block-startup variable)

will start up the org file with all blocks hidden.  I use this all the
time as I tend to have quite large blocks often.
