+source code.
+
+ParEdit helps **keep parentheses balanced** and adds many keys for moving
+S-expressions and moving around in S-expressions.  Its behavior can be jarring
+for those who may want transient periods of unbalanced parentheses, such as
+when typing parentheses directly or commenting out code line by line.")
