DB2 functions were usually formatted with the brace on the leading line like so:

size_t table_count( T * table )
{ 
   size_t count = 0 ;
   ....
}

For such code, typing [[ in vim anywhere from somewhere in the function text would take you to the beginning of the function. It has always annoyed me that this key sequence didn’t work for functions formatted without the leading { in the first column, such as

size_t table_count( T * table ) { 
    size_t count = 0 ;
    ....
}

Having my handy [[ command sequence take me to the first line of the file is pretty annoying, enough that I looked up the way to do what I want. A key sequence that does part of this job is:

[{

This takes you to the outermost ending position of the current scope, and you can use % to get to the beginning of that scope. You can repeat this as many times as necessary, until you get the outermost scope.

Is there a better way to go directly to the outermost scope directly, regardless of how the function happens to be formatted?
