Description Gao Hao CLA 2020-06-15 09:02:33 EDT
Created attachment 283283 [details]
delete matched characters simultaneously

Take the code below for example:


Files.lines(Path.of(""));


If the cursor is placed in the middle "|", when pressing the backspace and deleting the open quote, the closing quote should be removed.

Press backspace, now the cursor is placed in the middle (|), when pressing the backspace and deleting the open brace , the closing brace should be removed.

Press backspace several times and now the cursor is in the function lines(|),  when pressing the backspace and deleting the open brace , the closing brace should be removed.

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.
