There's probably a faster way, but the way I know is remapping the ';'
key like this:
(global-set-key ";" 'insert-closepar)
where the function insert-closepar would be something like this
(tested) :
(defun insert-closepar ()
"Close parenthesis Jiri's way"
(interactive)
(if (looking-at ")")
(forward-char))
(insert ";"))
Oh, and you probably don't want to make that binding global map,
because you are only going to use it on specific modes. Try doing:
(define-key somelanguage-mode-map ";" 'insert-closepar)
Hope I could help,
