'Matching square brackets in vim
I am aware of the shortcut for flower braces i.e. Having cursor over { and pressing ]} gets me to the corresponding }. How to do the same for matching square brackets? []
Solution 1:[1]
In normal mode, try
vi[oh
vi[ should visually select the entire block between [], and o switch cursor to the front of visual selection, then h moves cursor onto [.
At the expense of more keystrokes, this works in more cases than % where you must hover over the bracket.
