Seeing the start of a tag is alright since you can often identify it by the id or some other identifying tag
e.g.
<div id="post-section">
</div>
However locating the closing tag in a long document is still very annoying (though you can try tracing it using good indentation, e.g. notepad++ shows lines between indents, so that's useful.
What would be nice is if there is a box shown automagically next to each closing div tags (space permitting), showing what the other tag looks like.
... while later
</div> [ id="post-section" ]

If too annoying, just make it show on hover (over the line, not over that tag... make scanning easy).-- mofosyne, Dec 05 2014 Some even allow hiding/showing code between paired tags. Notepad++ comes to mind.-- the porpoise, Dec 05 2014 bigsleep,
<!-- post-section --> takes up space.
Highlights don't work if the tags are beyond the screenview

yea notepad++ is pretty good. But seeing things at a glance is nice as well.-- mofosyne, Dec 05 2014 computer: programming language?-- notexactly, Dec 18 2018 random, halfbakery
