Add closing quote? #211

Closed p4ulcristian closed 11 months ago

p4ulcristian commented 11 months ago

Hello, I want to close quotes too. Is this possible with parinfer.js? Or do you have any idea how to achieve this behaviour? I just want the same as with parens. So like [x -> [x] it should work for "x -> "x"

I don’t see this being possible. Programmers don’t use “directional” quotes, only "non-directional" ones. Imagine if instead of (parens) we used |pipes|. Plus, multi-line strings can’t be re-indented without mutating their contents.
