Re: mic-paren.el 3.10 available

[rfflrccrd]

Dear Mr. Nguyen,

Thank you for releasing this updated version of mic-paren.el.

As I use Viper, a Vim-emulation mode, I looked into the customization group 
mic-paren-matching, hoping to find a way to emulate the way Vim uses to 
highlight parentheses.  I found nothing.  Do you confirm it is so?  Basically, 
since Vim uses both a bar cursor and a block cursor, depending on context it 
highilights sometimes the parenthesis before the cursor and sometimes the one 
after the cursor.

Have a nice day.
