# poppy.vim vim port of [highlightparentheses.el](https://github.com/tsdh/highlight-parentheses.el) which gives rainbow parens propagating from the cursor Enabled with autocmds ( :h autocommand ) example: `au! cursormoved * call PoppyInit()` or: `au! cursormoved *.lisp call PoppyInit()` or even make a mapping: ``` augroup Poppy au! augroup END nnoremap hp :call clearmatches() \| let g:poppy = -get(g:,'poppy',-1) \| \ exe 'au! Poppy CursorMoved *' . (g:poppy > 0 ? ' call PoppyInit()' : '') ``` modify coloring by changing `g:poppyhigh`, which is a list of highlight group names. If you want only 1 paren level highlighted, let `g:poppyhigh` to a list with 1 group name. If you want the highlighting to include matches which are under the cursor, like the matchparen plugin included with vim, `let g:poppy_point_enable = 1` .
