intro: Mismatches of parentheses, braces, (angle) brackets,
especially in sources which may be rich in those,
may be difficult to trace. This little script helps you
by writing your text to standard output, after adding a
left margin to your text, which will normally be almost
empty, but will clearly show up to 10 mismatches. (Just
try me on myself to see that the parenthesis starting this
sentence will not appear to be matched at the end of the
file. If you look at me in the vim editor, then select
this paragraph and try the command: :!%.
