Last change: 2006 Feb 27 + + + VIM REFERENCE MANUAL by Bram Moolenaar + + +Highlighting matching parens *matchparen* + +The functionality mentioned here is a |standard-plugin|. +This plugin is only available if 'compatible' is not set. + +You can avoid loading this plugin by setting the "loaded_matchparen" variable: > + :let loaded_matchparen = 1 + +The plugin installs CursorMoved autocommands to redefine the match +highlighting. + +To disable the plugin after it was loaded use this command: > + + :NoMatchParen + +And to enable it again: > + + :DoMatchParen + +The highlighting used is ParenMatch. You can specify different colors with +the ":highlight" command. Example: > + + :hi ParenMatch ctermbg=blue guibg=lightblue + +The characters to be matched come from the 'matchpairs' option. You can +change the value to highlight different matches. Note that not everything is +possible. For example, you can't highlight single or double quotes, because +the start and end are equal. + +The syntax highlighting attributes are used. When the cursor currently is not +in a string or comment syntax item, then matches inside string and comment +syntax items are ignored. Any syntax items with "string" or "comment" +somewhere in their name are considered string or comment items. + +============================================================================== + vim:tw=78:ts=8:ft=help:norl: |
