@findex electric-pair-mode
Electric Pair mode, a global minor mode, provides a way to easily
insert matching delimiters: parentheses, braces, brackets, etc.
Whenever you insert an opening delimiter, the matching closing
delimiter is automatically inserted as well, leaving point between the
two. Conversely, when you insert a closing delimiter over an existing
one, no insertion takes places, and that position is simply skipped
over. If the region is active (@pxref{Mark}), insertion of a
delimiter operates on the region: the characters in the region are
enclosed in a pair of matching delimiters, leaving point after the
delimiter you typed.
Whenever you insert an opening delimiter, the matching closing delimiter
is automatically inserted as well, leaving point between the two.
However, if you insert a closing delimiter where one already exists
(probably a mistake, since typing the opening delimiter inserted the
closing one for you), Emacs simply moves point to after the closing
delimiter, skipping the insertion. If the region is active
(@pxref{Mark}), insertion of a delimiter operates on the region: the
characters in the region are enclosed in a pair of matching delimiters,
leaving point after the delimiter you typed. If you provide a prefix
argument when inserting a delimiter, the numeric value of that prefix
argument specifies the number of pairs to insert.
These variables control additional features of Electric Pair mode:
