Re: Documentation: braces or parentheses

Ahh, I see.  Right, bracket is generic and if the documentation used braces for parenthesis, it is incorrect.

Yes?  Not quite what?  What you write above just seems to illustrate
what I was saying.

I meant that "brackets", not "braces", is the term to use if you wish
to refer to any kind of brackets.  The documentation uses the word
"braces" to refer specifically to parentheses ("round brackets").
