| Nice script, but the 'Special' highlighting of most color-schemes isn't very bright, so I changed the 'Special' in line 158 of the script to 'Search', because the 'Search' highlighting is much brighter in most colorschemes, like the one I use (asu1dark). Now the other bracket really 'flashes' on, and I don't have to hurt my eyes searching for a somewhat different coloured bracket.....

The highlighting group change sounds ok to me! The latest version
now incorporates "Search" instead of "Special" for highlighting of
the corresponding curly brace.

<himtchbrkt.vim> now supports highlighting the matching bracket with
cursor keys (<up> <down> <right> <left>) in insert mode.

HiMtchBrkt now supports the highlighting of matching brackets with
<home> <end> b w ; ,
and upon termination, unmaps <left> <right> <up> <down> <home> and <end>.
A variable "g:DrChipTopLvlMenu" has the default value "DrChip" which
controls where the menu items go.

How about saying in the docs that the keybinding to start highlighting is <leader>[i instead of \[i.

Some note to vim newbies (i am one of them) :
1) I downloaded and compiled vim 6.1 in my home directory and soon realized that if i put HiMtchBrkt.vim in my runtime/plugins dir it is not loaded at all
instead you should create in your homedir (~/) subdirectory "~/.vim/plugins" and put it there.
2) also I ralized that I can't start it running neither by ":\[i" or :<leader>[i
All the time vim reports error: "E10: \ should be followed by /, ? or &"
instead I made very rude and at least working for me "hack" :
opened ~/.vim/plugins/HiMtchBrkt.vim and added two stupid functions just before line "fu! <SID>HMBStart()"
==========two stupid functions==========
fu! BStart()
call <SID>HMBStart()
endfunction
fu! BStop()
call <SID>HMBStop()
endfunction
===========original continues...============
" HMBStart:
fu! <SID>HMBStart()
if exists("b:dohimtchbrkt") && b:dohimtchbrkt == 1
" already in HiMtchBrkt mode
echo "[HiMtchBrkt]"
return
endif
.........
....etc.....
....etc.....
=====================================
Now (as I am real newbie) I can easy and "reliable" start and stop breackets highlighting by executing commands:
:call BStart()
and
:call BStop()
------------------------
This comment was intended only for real vim newbies who just want it to put in work (no more).
I need no credits because hack is very rude and stupid.
Thanks for attention.
--vim newbie.

Sorry for misleading a bit: at homedir must be created "~/.vim/plugin"
NOT "~/.vim/plugins"

I-hat...: did you ever realize that \[i should be typed from normal mode?
The colon puts you into command mode, and admittedly \[i is not defined
there.

This is the simplest form of this map:
nn <silent> K mk:exe 'match Search /\\%'.line(".").'l/'<CR>

| Hmm, the map maxiangjiang provided highlights the entire line whenever a K is pressed. Doesn't seem to help with highlighting matching braces any.

Hi,
I have downloaded the plugin and i would like to enable it by default.
The start mapping is '<Leader>[i', what do i have to do so when I vim a file it will automatically enable it.
Regards,
Maoz.

Hi...great script!
I have one problem with it though: Whenever it is activated, I can't use a range >9 on any commands. Vim always gives the error E481 "No range allowed".
Once I disable the script everythings back to normal.
Any solutions?

You might want to add these two, so you can search through your code (for a bracket) and still have syntax highlighting...
nnoremap <silent> n n:silent call <SID>HiMatchBracket()<CR>
nnoremap <silent> N N:silent call <SID>HiMatchBracket()<CR>

| To the preceding anonymous tipper -- please send me an email describing your problem. Perhaps some option is interfering that I haven't worked around yet, for example. Its best to give bug reports directly to me; sometimes quite some time can pass before I read the tips to see if anything has been appended there.

| When I use this plugin it highlights everything on the page, even if there are no brackets, parens, etc. I'm using vim 6.3 on x86_64. Anyone else experienced this?

| Ok.. It doesn't highlight the entire line anymore... I closed all running instances of vim and that went away. However now it doesn't do anything. I have tried running it both from within vim and automatically at startup. Any suggestions?

| Usually bugs are caused by some setting that I haven't worked around as yet (largely because I don't use that setting myself and so don't know about its ill effect). Try vim -u NONE -N, then source HiMtchBrkt.vim in, see if it works. If it does, then some setting (or possibly some other plugin) is causing interference. Try commenting out your settings in your .vimrc; if HiMtchBrkt works, then restore comments until you find out what's causing the problem. Please let me know so I can workaround such settings!

WARNING TO GVIM USERS
The plugin is great, but i was strongly discouraged from using it with gvim. Basically, whenever I have cursor over a curly brace, it highlights the matching one, but if I scroll up or down using the scrollbar - gvim shuts down with the following message:
~$ Vim: Caught deadly signal SEGV
Vim: Finished.
Since I'm a vim newbie, I have no idea how to fix it, so I turned it off. Is there a way to contact the author with that bug?

In the top of my scripts you'll typically find my email. Of course, you can look at this particular note to find it (just remove the NOSPAM).
Now: I've used gvim and HMBstart without problem, scrolling all the way up and down the file. When you're talking segment violations, the problem isn't directly with the script or plugin, but rather vim itself. You should let Bram Moolenaar know how to reproduce the problem: vim -s $VIMRUNTIME/bugreport.vim to create a bug report. You can also join the [email protected] and perhaps others can help. As is, you haven't provided enough information for me to duplicate your difficulty.

Is there a way to highlight def-end and if-then-end matches?
I am debugging some code and it seems that there are some
mismatched "end" statements.
