Disable matching single quote in Atom Text Editor

Question

How to selectively disable atom from creating a matching single quote and and backtick? This helps in programming in Scheme.

I tried Settings>Package>Bracket Matcher, if I disable Autocomplete bracket then it also disables matching brackets and matching double quotes. I want matching brackets and matching double quotes but not matching single quotes.

EDIT: This feature is now available in Atom.

Answer 1

The feature that you want is now available. Just delete the quotes from the Autocomplete Characters in Bracket Matcher package settings.

Alternatively, disable completely by toggling Autocomplete Brackets off. This won't affect the bracket-matcher:go-to-matching-bracket functionality (which is awesome). – Conner

Answer 2

Edit -> preferences from left choose packages there is a search bar at the top search for Bracket-Matcher then press setting from right side look foo settings section and in that section look for something called auto Brackets. Uncheck it.

Answer 3

Unfortunately, it's an all or nothing deal (as of version 0.82.0).

Unchecking the "Autocomplete Brackets" box means no autocompleted closing single/double quotes, brackets, backticks, or parentheses.

You could always log an issue (search first and make sure one doesn't already exist) and request that this feature be extended.

on a side note I switched to Emacs and it has the best support for typing code in Scheme. – Scatterbrain
