check-parens
package.
Summary description: Simple program to check LaTeX code for matching parentheses, etc.
License type: gpl
Announcement text: Yes
----------------------------------------------------------------------
check-parens is a simple program written in C++ to check LaTeX code for matching
parentheses, etc. I wrote it because I got annoyed trying to find difficult to
trace mismatched braces. It reports any errors/warnings with precise
compiler-like line:pos numbers to ease finding LaTeX compilation problems as
well as mismatches of parentheses in mathematical formulas. It also checks
matching delimiter sizes (i.e. left, ig etc.).
