In the following text block, starting at 1 or 3, and pressing
% in normal mode in
vim, finds the pair of matching parentheses, and toggles between them if you press
% again. Starting at 1 finds the closing
) first. Starting at 3 finds the opening
( first. This is all OK and useful.
Some lines 1 with (stuff 2 in matching 3 parentheses)
However, starting at 2 and pressing
% finds nothing. What's going on?
Update: other commands such as
vib can find the
(...) block from either 2 or 3 (but not 1) which is one way around the limitation, but still curious...
