Enabling bracket matching without auto closing brackets in atom

init.coffee

BracketMatcherView = require '/Applications/Atom.app/Contents/Resources/app/node_modules/bracket-matcher/lib/bracket-matcher-view.js'

atom.workspaceView.eachEditorView (editorView) =>
  if editorView.attached and editorView.getPane()?
    new BracketMatcherView(editorView)

keymap.cson

'.editor':
  'ctrl-m': 'bracket-matcher:go-to-matching-bracket'

styles.less

.bracket-matcher {
	border-bottom: 1px dotted lime;
	position: absolute;
}

Disable bracket-matcher in Atom->Preferences.

Update styles.less to manually add the CSS.

Update init.coffee to manually load the BracketMatcherView.

Add to the keymap to retain the matching bracket selection.

FYI if you go to the bracket-matcher package, there are now settings and you can just uncheck the auto-complete brackets and quotes boxes, they listened!
