When it says "(y)", yes is the default and return means "y".
When it says "(n)", no is the default and return means "n".
When it says "(y/n)", there is no default.

In general, at least.  I don't know whether there are exceptions
in some specific prompts, but they would be few.

Square brackets or round parentheses - well it was changed from
"[Y]" etc. to "(y)" etc. a while ago.  I don't know why.
