Hey,
Thanks for that important clue. It seems the secret to making it work is in
the values of the b:match_skip and b:match_words variables. Thank you, this
problem has been bugging me for a while.

Addendum: It depends on the 'filetype' and possibly on whether %-jumping
is done by Vim C code or by the matchit script: with the same file, if
:set filetype=vim
% jumps between 1 and 6 (but here the matchit plugin comes into play),
and matchparen pairs 1 with 6 too.
Best regards,

Note that with an empty 'filetype', which might mean English (or French
or...) plaintext, an apostrophe isn't necessarily a paired
string-terminator, so (don't you see) the opening and closing round
brackets earlier in this sentence should be paired. In a programming
language such as Vim-script or C, there is a filetype-plugin which
should be responsible to adjust the relevant options and variables
according to the syntax of the language.
Double-quotes, on the contrary, "can", I think, always be assumed to be
string or quotation boundaries.
Best regards,
Tony.
