I like the automatic pairing of quotes, brackets, parentheses, etc. via auto_match_enabled = true in the settings.
However I often find myself being thrown off when I have my cursor to the immediate left of the closing quote, and attempt to type another quote. Instead of adding a new quote character, Sublime text sees that there is a closing quote, and just shifts the cursor to the right of the quote.
I find this second mechanic incredibly unintuitive, and it gives me problems especially when I’m working with lots of nested quotes/brackets, or when I want to set up nested parentheses. It can even feel like I’m fighting the program. I realize that with the correct workflow this shouldn’t happen, but I guess it’s just not how I work.
I was wondering, is there a way to disable this? I like that it auto completes the quote in the first place, but I don’t like when it prevents me from starting a new quote to the immediate left of a closing quote character.
