As far as I can tell, to get the highlighting to start in the position after (so to highlight "[x (foo bar)]" when the insertion point is before that quoted "]"), then you'd need to change the method I pointed you to. I guess it would make sense to add an overridable method that returns #f or a position and whose default value was:
(define/public (match-paren-position) (define st (get-start-position)) (and (= st (get-end-position)) st)) then to bind "here" to calling that method and change the "when" to just check the result isn't #f and then to have VIM mode override it to, in the right cases, add 1 to the result. Some suggestions about the method you linked to: - Don't create the brush inside on-paint (use the brush-list or stick it in a field). - Don't assume that the width of "a" is the same as the other widths (it isn't in common racket code, as the λ character tends to not be in most people's fixed width font so substitution happens). Use get-character.
