pair-mode: remove "(" from pair-mode-chars when in python-mode.

Hi. How can I turn OFF the pair-mode char being inserted ONLY for "("
 ( but NOT for the other quote/braces/etc chars ) .


Details...

 [[[ I don't know lisp. ]]]

... I'm trying to have pair-mode ON in python-mode, BUT not have ")"
auto-inserted when I type "(".

 For other characters like

> [
>
{
>
<
>
'
>
"
>
etc, I DO want pair-mode to provide the matching pair.


I'd been at it (trial-and-error) for some time with no progress, so I tried
this to try to see ANY change in behaviour:

  (make-variable-buffer-local 'pair-mode-chars)
>
  (make-variable-buffer-local 'pair-mode-map)
>

>   (set 'pair-mode-chars '(91))
>
  (set 'pair-mode-map '(keymap (91 . skeleton-pair-insert-maybe)))
>

C-h v pair-mode-chars _does_ show this:

.. Its value is (91)

Local in buffer HelloBrian.py; global value is
>
>
(40 91 123 60 2219 96 34 39) ...
>

But even so, the matching character being inserted for ALL of these:

> <{("'`
>

I expected pair-mode be working only for "[" ?

I'd appreciate help on this.

What is pair-mode?  It is not distributed with Emacs 22.3.

Thanks for the response - I was losing hope :)

With an example:
 If I type in an opening-parenthesis,
 pair-mode will insert a matching closing-parenthesis immediately after my
input.

It works similarly for other characters like {,[,",',<, etc.
By providing a }.],",',>, etc character as the case may be.

 - makes for some minor (and very convenient) key-stroke savings. I'd just
like to turn it off for "("  when in python-mode.

I think this is where I got it:

;;; pair-mode.el --- insertion of paired characters
