You can fold sequences of two or more empty lines (may contain whitespace) with these settings:
:syn match MyEmptyLines "\(^\s*\n\)\+" fold :syn sync fromstart :setlocal foldmethod=syntax
After entering the above, type zM
to close all folds, or zR
to open them.
If you have set 'foldcolumn
' to more than 0 you can open/close the empty-line blocks by clicking the '+' or '-' with the mouse in the folder column.

Thanks for the tip, it works indeed, but appears to be very slow. Hundreds of empty lines have been added on a file I must look at, but it takes 30s before I can view the result -any idea ?
