including the left parenthesis:
search for \(.+$
replace with nothing
excluding the left parenthesis:
search for (?<=\().+$
replace with nothing
The "exclusion" uses a "lookbehind" match as in "look behind this to see if the
rest matches, but only act on the rest". So here, it says "look behind a left
parenthesis see if you find anything"
