Description
If the path or name of the file given to Plate.WriteFITS contains an open parenthesis, the write will fail. This is caused by the CFITSIO template file feature which I completely missed when disabling the extended file name syntax a few years ago. It cropped up when testing the Scheduler astro-imaging interface which creates Plan names with parentheses, and when the plan name is used in the file name. It also cropped up on 64-bit systems with "Program Files (x86)" in the path.
