Besides using the mbs plugin, is there any way to get fm (18) to indicate ‘paired’ parenthesis in the calculation engine?

 

thanks

Have you ever entered a calculation and gotten the err message that ther are morre ) than( or more( than )?  It seems that fm knows some pairs but is not able to know unpaired parenthesis.  Monkeybread plug in offersa way to ‘see’ colored parenthesis pairs but at. $150, it is not pracical for me.

 

ideas???

1. Insert a carriage return after each ( and before each ); that will help you spot the "orphans";

2. Copy your calculation to a text editor that has such or similar feature.

 IIRC, you can use it in demo mode indefinitely at the price of an occasional nag screen.
