Hi

This is w.r.t bracket matching feature in eclipse. When a user opens a java file
and wants to see where the matching bracket is for the selected bracket, eclipse
does a poor job in showing the corresponding bracket.

1>It is very difficult to check the matching bracket.A small rectangle is used
This sometimes makes it difficult to see that bracket.

2>Also if the bracket is way on top, users will have to scroll very carefully
to check where that bracket is.

I would advice you to look up Intellij Idea and see how it does it.
Idea does a wonderful job of showing the matching brakcet.

Please investigate this...

Thanks
