 |  |  hi,
 
 A few people around ITP asked me, and others emailed me concerning the weird cursor behavior in the Proce55ing environment. When you put the text caret in front of a "(", "{", or "[", it will highlight the according closing one with a little box. It's useful in error checking and navigating around code; but if you are not used to it then it's just confusing and dyslexic-feeling - especially when you are trying to use the arrow keys to traverse a line like "void setup(){".
 
 Here is how to disable bracket/brace-matching in Proce55ing. In the text file
 "Proce55ing-XXXX/lib/pde.properties", find the following setting:
 
 # bracket/brace highlighting
 editor.program.brackethighlight.enabled=true
 
 and change it to false:
 
 # bracket/brace highlighting
 editor.program.brackethighlight.enabled=false
 
 save this text file,
 restart Proce55ing,
 and this caret behavior will cease.
 
 ------
 
 you can make other changes here as well, for example:
 
 # highlight for the current line
 editor.program.linehighlight.enabled=true
