I knew some it but found some more. But no, I don't want to try to turn emacs into vi so much as turn emacs power loose on if-fi while-done etc constructs. >> I know emacs can do that as well but not as easily.

That was my my main question and I didn't notice anything on those sites about that... I hope I just missed it. So still wondering how to get paren type actions to work on if-fi type shell constructs.
