the parenthesis is part of the syntax, normally surrounding the fill part of 
the fmt expression and separating it from the justification and descale parts, 
for example:
        CRT A "R(#20)"
prints A right justified in a field of 20 spaces. It's confusing because that 
example will also work without the parens. If you want to use "(" as a literal, 
put parens around the entire fill part:
        CRT A "((###) ###-####)"
