Autocloses pairs of chararacters as seen in TextMate or Scribes.
I couldn't find a script that worked as I liked, so here's my very simple attempt :)
Pairs are (), [], {}, '', ""
Features
=======
1) in INSERT mode, typing the closing character let the cursor "escape" the pair
e.g.: (cursor represented with a pipe, on the left what you type, on the right what you get)
" -> "|"
some text -> "some text|"
" -> "some text"|
* useful when typing an open/close bracket pair as in foo()
* works with already existing text
e.g.:
(move cursor) -> "this is a string|"
" -> "this is a string"|
2) "atomic" deletion of a pair
()|<bs> -> |
(|)<bs> -> |
* won't work with <del> (use <del> when you don't want the closing bracket/quote)
3) experimental support for visual mode
select abc
type <leader>" -> "abc"
tested with vim 7; might work with earlier versions, though
hope you'll like it, let me know!

UPDATE: since you made me notice, here's the other scripts dealing with the same problem
* vimscript #1849 - AutoClose by Karl Guertin
* vimscript #2009 - AutoClose by Thiago Alvares
they all differs for little, the first is a bit simpler; the latter is probably the most configurable.
Pick your favorite :)
