p.s. Also put the line number of the opener in the info on that side stack. Then you can say "expected...; possibly a missing '}' matching the '{' on line 17?".

You wouldn't really need this in Algol68 or other languages with distinct opener/closer pairs, but in C with the heavy overload of "{}" and "()" it would be real helpful. And you *are* trying to be helpful, aren't you? :-)
