Bug#1007869: O: rainbow-delimiters -- Emacs mode to colour-code delimiters according to their depth



Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: debian-emacsen@lists.debian.org
Control: affects -1 src:rainbow-delimiters

I intend to orphan the rainbow-delimiters package.

This package is no longer loaded by my init.el and it would be better if
someone who actually uses the package maintains it.  There is nothing
wrong with it; no need for an RM or anything.

This is a team-maintained package, so the adoptor should either replace
me in Uploaders:, or alternatively take the package out of the team's
hands.

The package description is:
 rainbow-delimiters is a "rainbow parentheses"-like mode which
 highlights delimiters such as parentheses, brackets or braces
 according to their depth. Each successive level is highlighted in a
 different color. This makes it easy to spot matching delimiters,
 orient yourself in the code, and tell which statements are at a given
 depth.
 .
 Great care has been taken to make this mode fast. You shouldn't see
 any change in scrolling or editing speed when it's on even when
 working in delimiter-rich languages like Clojure or Emacs Lisp. It
 can be used with any language.
 .
 You can customize the colors rainbow-delimiters uses. The default
 colors are intentionally subtle; they are unobtrusive enough to make
 the mode worth looking at even if you usually don't like rainbow
 parentheses modes. A number of major color themes such as Zenburn and
 Solarized have added their own faces for the mode.
