Hi,
When I use Emacs in a Programming Mode that uses "{" and "}" to enclose
blocks I'd like it to complete the closing brace automatically, or at least
jump into the Block when I enter the closing brace, so I want to reduce:
"{" <ret> "}" <up> <end> <ret> <tab>
to
"{" <ret> "}"
How do you do that, or where do you start off? Can that behaviour be
configured or will I habe to go into lisp?
Thanks
Uwe

For parentheses you can type M-(.
There are various packages that do something similar for other
parentheses-like characters. I think the "Autotype" manual that
comes with Emacs (C-h i d m Autotype RET) explains this.
