This is a perfectly OK way to write this, but personally I find my eyes
start to glaze over whenever I see things like \(\(, so I would probably
have written it as \({2}. I find that a little easier to read. So, for
the whole thing up to this point:
\({2}[^)]+\){2}
although, even better would be to use to utterly awesome re.VERBOSE
flag, and write it as:
\({2} [^)]+ \){2}
