Characters in Object Definitions?

[Hari Sekhon]

Hi all,

   I'm trying to use brackets in service description eg

service_description             FTP (Public)

but this doesn't work. I have noticed that square brackets do works.

Is there a list somewhere that tells me what I can and can't use in the 
object definitions?
I've searched the FAQs without luck. I can make do with square brackets 
but I'd really love to know what I can and can't get away with in the 
definitions

I have tried escaping the brackets with slashes and also putting single 
quotes thus: 'FTP (Public)' but I still get an error complaining about 
illegal characters.

Thanks


Hari
