AutoClose & AutoEnclose
The AutoClose and AutoEnclose feature allows you to quickly enter pairs of parenthesis, brackets or enclose selected text in quotes.
If you use the AutoClose feature, each first character will be closed by a second (eg: [ will become []).
If you use the AutoEnclose feature, when selecting a piece of text, using the first character of a pair will automatically add the closing character.
