Colors for the good/bad matching braces is defined by the color scheme's
`brace_good` and `brace_bad`.  You then could alter the theme to set
e.g. a background color that stands out for `brace_good`.

If you're using the default theme, you can open `filetypes.common`
(through Tools->Configuration files), and alter the `brace_good` setting
under `[named_styles]` (beware, there's also one of that name under
`[styling]`, but don't touch that!), and e.g. setting it to something
like this:

	brace_good=0x0000ff;0xAAFFAA;true;false

the second value is the background color, that I here changed to a light
green out of my hat.

Regards,
Colomban
