From: Don Owens Date: 2005-02-11T02:31:46+09:00 Subject: Re: ruby-mode.el Has a paren-mode kind of thing been considered for ruby-mode where having the cursor over an "end" would highlight or blink the cursor over the corresponding "begin", "while", etc. at the beginning of the block? I think that would be very useful in the case where you have a lot of blocks ending together, just as it is for many ending braces in Perl, for example.
