functionality

Hello,

I would like Dreamweaver to show me the opening/closing tag when I select a tag. This functionality is seen in many editors, I know for sure Eclipse has it.

To make things clearer: When I select/highlight a opening tag with my mouse I would like Dreamweaver to select/highlight the closing tag.

My main questions:

Does anybody know what this functionality is called?
Does anybody know how to add this functionality to Dreamweaver?

I've tried searching the Dreamweaver extensions on the Adobe exchange but couldn't find what i'm looking for.

Thanks in advance!

Kind regards,

KaiserSoze
