I am still new to emacs and Common Lisp, so this may be a trivial
question. When I am working in SLIME, I typically have 2 buffers, one
for the REPL, and one for editing code. When a function is small, and I
close a parenthesis, emacs quickly flashes the corresponding parenthesis
that is being closed. However, when a function is very long, I can not
see what open parenthesis corresponds to the closed parenthesis I just
typed. This is because it is above what is viewable on the screen. How
should I deal with this? Is there any key binding in SLIME that allows
me to quickly flash the corresponding open paren that I am working in?
Thanks.
You might want to try show-paren-mode. It always highlights the matching
paren.
I've got it activated as part of a lisp-mode hook:
(add-hook 'lisp-mode-hook
(lambda () (show-paren-mode 1)))
