@shaunlebron: yes, sublime have Ctrl+M for jumping to the matching parent, which I've started to use recently more, despite of having paredit, BUT I've just understood some issues. 1. i never bothered to understand exactly how it works, i just labelled it working inconsequentially 2. we've just learnt ~3-4months ago that u can also select scope with ^⇧-M &&&& undo the selection with ⌘-U. It's clunky... 😕 VC Code at least has symmetrical shortcuts but they are finger breaking too ⌘^⇧←/→ 3. we started employing Clojure by porting a largely static, informational website into HLisp (as defined by http://hoplon.io ; it's a bit like Hiccup) and our matching parens were off screen often, since we were working on only full HD screens and the BracketHighlighter plugin for Sublime by default wouldn't show matches across more than 5kilobytes of text... The built-in Ctrl-M actually works across more than 5k by default... (this project is actually open source here https://github.com/exicon/homepage )

cool, yeah, I expected the go-to-matching-paren to be without limits since it’s a direct command

that’s awesome that you open-sourced your hoplon app btw, I wonder how many folks know about that
