I am sending a URL string to NSWorkspace's openURL method that has the bracket characters ( ) in it. The URL can't be opened by NSWorkspace. If I take out the ( ) characters NSWorkspace then opens the URL, so I guess
NSWorkspace considers the string with ( ) a malformed URL.

Note, the ( ) characters are used by Mapquest to label a location. If I just enter the URL string with brackets in the browser , it opens mapquest ok.

Is there any way around this problem?

My bad - URL escapes: %28 and %29.

I tried %28 and %29 and that didn't work either.
