DelimiterFlashTime
• DelimiterFlashTime is an option for cells that determines the time in seconds an opening delimiter flashes when its matching closing delimiter is entered.
• With the default setting DelimiterFlashTime
0.3, matching delimiters flash for 0.3 seconds.
• Delimiters include parentheses, brackets, and braces, as well as [[ or ]], (* or *), and paired special characters such as
or
.
• With the setting DelimiterFlashTime
0, delimiters do not flash.
• If you enter an unpaired closing delimiter, the standard Publicon front end will beep.
• You can use the front end menu command Edit

• You can set DelimiterFlashTime at the level of a single cell, a notebook, or the whole front end.
