Check for Parity of curly Braces

Post by nich »

The most common cause of compile errors for me is unmatched brackets. For example, in the align environment, if I forget to close off a pair of curly braces, a compile error occurs and I need to find the source of the problem by checking through the equations I've written.

My questions is weather or not there is bracket parity checking function in TeXnicCenter which would ideally highlight any unmatched brackets in my source file.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Check for Parity of curly Braces

The small tool check_parens can help to check the balance of curly braces, square brackets, parentheses and further delimiters.
