The Perl implementation of this comes from the Perl TK module, it's not our own code. So far I haven't found a similar function in tkinter, so most likely I'll port the Perl code and make it part of the GG2 codebase itself.

See HighlightSinglePairBracketingCursor function defined here (starting on line 432 as of this writing):
