2 * Routines to perform bracket matching functions.
9 * Try to match the n-th open bracket
10 * which appears in the top displayed line (forwdir),
11 * or the n-th close bracket
12 * which appears in the bottom displayed line (!forwdir).
13 * The characters which serve as "open bracket" and
14 * "close bracket" are given.

32 * This is either the top or bottom line on the screen,
33 * depending on the type of bracket.
