*autobrace.txt* Automatically insert closing braces and quotes

OVERVIEW *autobrace-overview*
This plugin rebinds some characters to make typing matching characters easier.
Specifically, it does these things:
* Opening brace and quote characters (specifically, `(`,
`[`, `{`, `'`, and `"`) are mapped to make them automatically insert their
corresponding closing character. `'` is special-cased to not insert the
closing character when typed after a word character, to avoid triggering
when typing words with apostrophes.
* Typing a closing brace or quote character while the next character past the
cursor is that character will skip over it instead of inserting it.
* Pressing when the next character is a closing brace will insert two
newlines, and leave the cursor in the middle.
* Pressing when the previous character is an open brace and there is
nothing but whitespace between the open brace and closing brace will delete
both the open and closing brace.

CONFIGURATION *autobrace-configuration*
None yet, but I'm open to suggestions!

BUGS *autobrace-bugs*
Due to limitations in Vimscript, using this plugin will tend to break using
the `.` operator to repeat insert operations, since the mappings bounce in and
out of normal mode. Suggestions welcome for how to fix this, but as far as I
can tell, it's not actually possible to fix in general currently.
