With emacs, how to go to the pairing (balancing) parentheses

Question

When cursor on one parentheses, how to jump to the pairing parentheses. Good to work in emacs -nw .

Just like % in Vim.

;;After got hint from @Lindy, @Francesco, I found more:

  C-M-f     Move forward over a balanced expression   C-M-b     Move backward over a balanced expression   C-M-k     Kill balanced expression forward   C-M-SPC   put the mark at the end of the sexp.   C-M-n  Move forward over a parenthetical group    C-M-p  Move backward over a parenthetical group    ;; C-M key binding can also be done by --> ESC Control-key    ;;And put this to .emacs, it will highlight opening/closing parens:   (show-paren-mode 1) 

Answer 1

Use C-M-right and C-M-left (respectively backward-sexp and forward-sexp) to go to the beginning or the end of the current expression. This works for parenthesis pairs but also for plain words.

Answer 2

As mentioned in emacs wiki (http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/NavigatingParentheses):

• C-M-n forward-list Move forward over a parenthetical group

• C-M-p backward-list Move backward over a parenthetical group

• C-M-f forward-sexp Move forward over a balanced expression

• C-M-b backward-sexp Move backward over a balanced expression

• C-M-k kill-sexp Kill balanced expression forward

• C-M-SPC mark-sexp Put the mark at the end of the sexp.
