I also use paredit. I haven't learned many of the advanced operations or keyboard shortcuts, it does the right thing intuitively just by using open/close paren and forward/backward/kill line/kill word etc. EDIT: I don't mean that to sound critical of parinfer development. Developing the software on top of a formal relationship between indentation and parens sounds like a very interesting and laudable approach. What I'd love to see is work on producing relaxed modes inheriting from paredit for use in non-lisps such as python.I use a very slightly modified paredit for python and have done every day for years. It gets it 95% right. https://github.com/dandavison/paredit-c https://github.com/dandavison/paredit-c
