I'm running a recent build from CVS (less than a month) and noticed
the following in the manual.
,----[ 31.4.3 Automatic Display Of Matching Parentheses ]
| `blink-matching-paren' turns the feature on or off: `nil' disables
| it, but the default is `t' to enable match display.
|
| `blink-matching-delay' says how many seconds to leave the cursor on
| the matching opening delimiter, before bringing it back to the real
| location of point; the default is 1, but on some systems it is useful
| to specify a fraction of a second.
|
| `blink-matching-paren-distance' specifies how many characters back
| to search to find the matching opening delimiter. If the match is not
| found in that distance, scanning stops, and nothing is displayed. This
| is to prevent the scan for the matching delimiter from wasting lots of
| time when there is no match. The default is 25600.
`----
None of these appear to exist any longer. If is has been removed then
the manual should reflect this.
I was using flash-paren.el do accomplish this which now doesn't seem
to work.
I saw a page on emacs-wiki mentioning paren-set-mode but this doesn't
appear to exist either.

Please use report-emacs-bug for bug reports.
I can see them, they're all in simple.el which should get loaded when Emacs is
built.

This doesn't seem to be part of Emacs. You need to contact the author.

This doesn't seem to be part of Emacs either.

??? I clearly see them all in the current CVS.
How did you establish that these three variables are gone?

They still exist.
