I work with latex/other documents with long nested of texts/codes are enclosed by paratheses or braces, like this:

{
   long blocks of latex or other materials
   (
      another long blocks of texts
   )
   some text
}

In emacs, if e.g. I move the cursor to the closing }, delete the } and then type it again, emacs will say

Matching {

Is there a way to get emacs to tell me the line number of this matching { ? The structure/nature of the document is such that I cannot easily add modifier/comments/indentation to help identify this {.

Thanks for your help!

p.s. I am not sure what's the correct tags for this question; feel free to give suggestions!
