Parens Matching



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.
