Thanks for this hint! I found thread you mean ("matching
parenthesis").
In my emacs (21.3.1) directory was no file mic-paren.el, so I downloaded
it from http://user.it.uu.se/~mic/emacs.html and everything works fine!
Thanks again!
Which surprises me - many years ago this matching parenthesis over
screen limits is allready functioned and I had nothing to install.
Strangely...
