auto-close for brackets

[ghost]

The auto-close brackets does work only for the first outer brackets (parenthesis,curly braces,square brackets), if one wants to have further brackets inside they are not auto-closed. It would be great if auto-closing where possible for any number of times and depth inside other same-brackets.
The following will happen if want 2 times brackets inside each other:

[[]
(()
{{}

it would be great if it could happen like this:

[[]]
(())
{{}}

The current operation does not auto-close brackets if there is already a matching close bracket.

If a pull request was provided that made it an option for the close bracket to always be added it would probably be accepted.

What is a pull and how and by whom could a pull request be made? Is there a way to manipulate the configuration file or something like that to make it possible to add this feature individually? I think it will be really helpful.

To be added to Geany itself it has to be coded in C, it is not configuration.

I C.

IMO the whoel auto-close feature in Geany is broken and should rather be removed and the feature left to a plugin (like auto-close, that seem to do fairly well)

[ghost]

I have to resort to the plugin too...

Agree with @b4n, should be removed from core, bet it won't be though. :)
