`C-c /'
     Without a prefix argument, this command toggles
     case-sensitive/case-insensitive search modes and plain
     vanilla/regular expression search.  With the prefix argument 1,
     i.e., `1 C-c /', this toggles case-sensitivity; with the prefix
     argument 2, toggles plain vanilla search and search using regular
     expressions.  Note: Viper Specials, for alternative ways to
     invoke this function.

`%'
     Find the next bracket/parenthesis/brace and go to its match.  By
     default, Viper ignores brackets/parentheses/braces that occur
     inside parentheses.  You can change this by setting
     `viper-parse-sexp-ignore-comments' to nil in your `.viper' file.
     This option can also be toggled interactively if you quickly hit
     `%%%'.

     This latter feature is implemented as a vi-style keyboard macro.
     If you don't want this macro, put

          (viper-set-parsing-style-toggling-macro 'undefine)

     in your `~/.viper' file.
