Description Simon Tardell CLA 2003-01-24 06:23:20 EST
When typing a closing matching parenthesis (brace, bracket, ...) the 
corresponding opening parenthesis (brace, bracket, ...) should blink. If the 
opening parentheisis (brace, bracket, ...) is off the top of the editor view, 
the matching line should be flashed in e.g the status bar (that thing in the 
bottom of the Eclipse window, to the left).

It is extremely handy, esp. if you do K&R style.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
