Although I do not remember seeing any instances of a URL enclosed in Parentheses, I also have not seen any URLs *containing* Parentheses until this Wikipedia link. Now the designers of the URL syntax reserved Angle Brackets "<>" for enclosing URLs in running text. And TB seems to be aware of this to a degree. If I try a URL with embedded Parentheses: http://example.com/ends-with-(parens) both the MicroEd and Windows editors do not highlight the final Parentheses. However if I use the same URL in Angle Brackets: <http://example.com/ends-with-(parens)> the final Parenthesis IS included in the Windows editor but NOT in the MicroEd editor.
