SQLcl 25.4: turn off automatic right parenthesis?

hochstrdJan 12 2026

Going from SQLcl 25.3.2 to 25.4.0 I have found that when I type a left parenthesis “(”, a left bracket “[”, or a left brace “{”, SQLcl now automatically supplies the right-side version. Which is wreaking all sorts of havoc when I try to paste in a SQL statement that has any of those, which is most! I cannot find mention of this new feature in any of the documentation. Is there a way to turn it off? Adjust it to happen only if another character wasn't “typed” within x milliseconds? etc.?
