    XBrackets Lite is:
    https://github.com/d0vgan/npp-XBracketsLite

    Starting from the version 2.0, it is rather XBrackets Pro than XBrackets Lite, because:

    XBrackets Lite v2.0 changelog:

    • Glory to Ukraine! Glory to the heroes!
    • new functions: Go To Matching Bracket, Sel To Matching Bracket
    • new functions: Go To Nearest Bracket, Sel To Nearest Brackets
    • now the configuration is stored in JSON format
    • file type-specific (language-specific) rules are applied
    • multi-character brackets and quotes are supported
    • brackets or quotes at the caret are highlighted
    • plugins communication by means of NPPM_MSGTOPLUGIN added
    • “XBrackets.ini” is no more used
    • thanks to astewart77 for testing and suggestions during the development

    Get it here:
    https://sourceforge.net/projects/npp-plugins/files/XBrackets%20Lite/XBrackets%20Plugin%20v2.0/
    https://github.com/d0vgan/npp-XBracketsLite/releases/tag/XBrackets_v200

    The name XBrackets Lite is preserved for the historical and branding purpose :)
    As XBrackets Lite is highly configurable, don’t hesitate to use Plugins -> XBrackets Lite -> Help… to find more details on each setting and syntax rule.

    Important deployment note:
    Starting from the version 2.0, the file “XBrackets_Config.json” must be present near the “XBrackets.dll”, since this file literally configurates XBrackets and tells it what to do.

    By the way,
    a British band “Paradise Last” has recently released a new album “Ascension”. This one is highly recommended!

    Guys, please immediately update to the version 2.0.1:
    https://sourceforge.net/projects/npp-plugins/files/XBrackets%20Lite/XBrackets%20Plugin%20v2.0.1/

    XBrackets Lite v2.0.1
    * Glory to Ukraine! Glory to the heroes!
    * hot-fix for NPPM_MSGTOPLUGIN

    The version 2.0 broke NPPM_MSGTOPLUGIN for all the other plugins because I was mistakenly handling all the NPPM_MSGTOPLUGIN messages for all the plugins, not just for XBrackets. My bad.
    As this was a critical problem, please update immediately.

    XBrackets Lite v2.0.3

    • Glory to Ukraine! Glory to the heroes!
    • fixed: CXBracketsLogic::OnCharPress was truncating a multi-byte character to a single-byte one, thus incorrectly treating e.g. 0x1D5B as 0x5B which is '['.
