Autocomplete for Brackets

[Louis9902]

Hey, first of all, an awesome project works really well.

But one small thing that would be very nice to have is that if you open a bracket
like \( for a math environment that it would be closed automatically with \).

Also for completions like \usepackage, it would be useful if it also creates the corresponding brackets like so \usepackage{%cursor%}

I'm not quite sure if it fits here or to the vscode extension.

Thanks for the report. I have added the missing math delimiters to the VS Code extension: latex-lsp/texlab-vscode@5355fb8. It should be available in the next release.

For the second part of your suggestion, I think that this behavior is not always wanted, for example if you need to add parameters: \usepackage[...]{}.

I second the "argument" expansion, I think it can be really handy. Maybe having at least an option to toggle that on ?

I agree that it'd be nice to have a configuration option (off by default) to auto-close braces on completion. (This is coming from someone using texlab with vim, so it'd be nice to have this in the texlab server, not the extension.)
