Default Formatting text within brackets

I'm trying to format text within square brackets.

Using "\[*\]" is what I usually use to select text within brackets, but it is limited in that it will only find the first closing bracket.

Where there are brackets within brackets, it comes up short, e.g.: with "[brown [fox] jumped]" the selection will end at the bracket after fox. I want the selection to end at the final close bracket after jumped.

Don't suppose anyone has a quick way of selecting all the text within open bracket until the close bracket?

Cheers
