Clojure command line: cursor moves every time I type closing parenthesis

Question

In the clojure command line

user=>

Every time I close a parenthesis, the cursor ▌ quickly moves to the opening paren of that block and moves back right away (probably to help me see where I started).

This can quickly get very frustrating when I type fast. How can I turn this option off?

Answer 1

if you are using lein repl, it should be using readline - put the following in ~/.inputrc

set blink-matching-paren off
