XEmacs command for moving to matching brace in cc-mode

Question

Is there a built-in or 3rd party elisp command to move to the matching brace in cc-mode?

I currently use (paren-set-mode 'paren t) to have XEmacs highlight the matching brace or paren, but when the brace is off the screen in a piece of code with nested if blocks, it would be very useful to have a command to jump to the matching brace.

Something similar to M-C-f and M-C-b but for {} rather than ().

Answer 1

C-M-f and C-M-b should work for { and } as well.

Answer 2

I have the big-menubar.el installed in XEmacs 21.5. It adds a menu item "Motion", and in that menu has the following two commands with their keybindings shown:

End of balanced Parenthesis C-M-n

Beginning of balanced Parenthesis C-M-p

I think of them as Control-Meta-next and previous.

They also have some other move-to commands that might interest you, here's a cut and paste from big-menubar.el showing the commands they are executing (which you can assign to any keys you like once you know what the commands are...):

(add-submenu

 '("Motion"
   ["Goto Mark"                  exchange-point-and-mark (mark t)]
   ["Goto Line..."                          goto-line           t]
   "---"
   ["End of Balanced Parentheses ( )"       forward-list        t]
   ["Beginning of Balanced Parentheses ( )" backward-list       t]
   ["Next Opening Parenthesis ("            down-list           t]
   ["Previous Opening Parenthesis ("        backward-up-list    t]
   ["Next Closing Parenthesis )"            up-list             t]
   "---"
   ["End of Balanced Expression"            forward-sexp        t]
