This is another very good suggest to help beginners. I absolutely agree
that the curly braces need to stand out (red, probably).
ALong this line, I suggest renaming the "balance delimiters" function. For
a long time I expected it to actually do something, such as locate curly
brackets that weren't properly closed. Perhaps calling it "identify
delimiters" or "show delimiters" would give a better sense of what it really
does for beginners.
