[ESS] Re: [R] R commandline editor question

[Robin Hankin]

Hello everyone

I'd forgotten about emacs's ability to do this!   Well I've been 
fiddling with
M-x modify-face for a few minutes now, and set the 
show-paren-mismatch-face
to fg green and  bg purple (emacs 21.3.50).

When I type "[(]"  I get a warning "mismatched parentheses" but no 
highlighting;
I was expecting the mismatching round and square brackets to be 
green/purple.
What am I doing wrong here?  What have I forgotten?
