undesired paren completion in org mode.

[introom]

In org mode, press the following key stroke:

=a<del>x=y

Expected behavior

the text should be: =x=y

specifically, the second = should skip over the completed = instead of inserting a new =

Actual behavior

=x=y=

Steps to reproduce the problem

I get the expected behaviour with my setup so I think this is configurable somehow. Which means we should probably make it the default as it is indeed what the user would expect.

Do you have smartparens-org loaded? Try (require 'smartparens-org) to be sure and try again

Also, do you have smartparens-strict-mode enabled or not?

[introom]

hi. thanks for your quick reply.

I've enabled smartparens-org, which is automatically loaded when I open an org file.

I've enabled/disabled smartparens-strict-mode, which gives the same undesired behavior.

Oh, the github formatting messed up the first line in your report, it did not print the <del> part (I guess when you don't put it in the pre mode it thinks it's a html tag and strips it). I can reproduce the issue when I hit backspace.

I still think this should be configurable somehow, but I'm not sure how yet.

[introom]

yes. it's like, if the key to type is the ending paren, in the meantime the cursor is on the end of a pair, then just skip.

That's what happens for ) and friends in strict mode and also for the " which is why I'm quite puzzled why it shouldn't work for =.
