Feature Suggestion: highlight the paren `%` would jump to

[chrisgrieser]

Hi, thanks for this nice little plugin.

I found it actually looking for something else, namely a plugin that would highlight the parenthesis a % would jump to, somewhat a quickscope but for %. While this plugin is already useful, I think also (or alternatively) highlighting the % bracket could be quite useful. Just like quickscope helps one to "learn" the f and t movements, this could help to learn the % movement.

Hello!

The % operator has this "look ahead" functionality that searches for the next pair and not the outer pair. So it doesn't quite make sense to have them both.

Take this snippet for example:

{ // <- sentiment should highlight these pairs
  if true { // imagine that the cursor is at the beginning of this line
    // ...
  } // <- `%` jumps here as it "looks ahead"
}

As you can see, % and sentiment conflict fundamentally.

Yes, I am aware of the difference, that's why I suggested it as a feature request instead of a bug report

I think a fork would be a great approach, because the base functionality of this feature is pretty much the same but the difference is in how you actually use it (the sentiment.ui module).

Nonetheless, I'll keep this open in case somebody wants to open a PR for it (but still a fork is better IMO).
