It's a fair comment! I certainly couldn't do it without BBEdit
keeping track of them for me. But I've found them more and more
useful because they delineate structure so well. Want to delete an
entire conditional from the code? It's just a click away.... Perhaps
that's why people ask for BBEdit to do code-folding?
Here's what newLisp code looks like:

Looks OK to me. I'd be interested to see the Perl equivalent for
this. Then I will be able to tell you which one my poor old brain
finds harder to parse. :-)
