I'll make no claims on easiness, but Emacs with IDLWAVE (idlwave.org)
can fold text in about any way you want. For instance, you can
justify comment lines like this:

;=========================================================== ==================
; ShowEvent - Handle events from the show interface, or dispatch to
; the appropriate method
;=========================================================== ==================

quite trivially. You can also split strings in the middle with a
simple keystroke, intelligently indent complex statements with
continuations, etc.
