Type \{  for a left, \} for a right curly brace.
Typing { gives you a nested block.

I am not sure.

On the 'pro' side: It behaves exactly as LaTeX does, whence it is
easy to implement.

On the 'contra' side: It is somewhat annoying and people who don't
know LaTeX certainly do not appreciate it.

Then it should behave in a similar fashion for \(, \), \[,
\] but we don't require \ before any of these, in fact if
we do add, it gives error.
