    Is there a way to configure NP++ to hilight matching ", <, > characters in addition to the {}, (), etc. pairs?  I want to set the cursor to a doublequote and have the matching doublequote change color just at it does for the left and right curly braces ({}).

      Use XBrackets Lite plugin, it has this functionality.

        No, Xbrackets Lite only provides INSERTION of matching brackets.  It does not hilight them.

        From Xbracket List's readme file:
        "As Scintilla highlights pair brackets by itself, XBrackets Lite doesn't
        do this (unlike XBrackets for AkelPad) - therefore I call it "XBrackets Lite".

        So, is this a Scintilla issue, or can I configure NP++ to do it?
