The matchparen plugin (see ":help matchparen") normally works when the
cursor is on a ( [ { } ] or ) to show you its mate (if it's on-screen,
of course) in a distinctive colour. If you earlier disabled it, you can
reenable it by removing the line ":let loaded_matchparen = 1" from your
vimrc.

The people of Halifax invented the trampoline. During the
Victorian period the tripe-dressers of Halifax stretched tripe across a
large wooden frame and jumped up and down on it to `tender and dress'
it. The tripoline, as they called it, degenerated into becoming the
apparatus for a spectator sport.
The people of Halifax also invented the harmonium, a device for
castrating pigs during Sunday service.
