title: How to quickly remove a pair of parentheses in Vim?
body: <p>I have a document that has thousands of times repeated fragments of this type:</p>
  <pre><code>( 
     &quot;x&quot; =&gt; &quot;a&quot;,
     &quot;xxxx&quot; =&gt; (&quot;ss&quot;) =&gt; (&quot;handles).
  )
  </code></pre>
  <p>I want to remove them with vim, I am trying this:</p>
  <pre><code>%g/(/normal f(d%
  </code></pre>
  <p>but it leaves</p>
  <blockquote>
  <p>( )</p>
  </blockquote>
  <p>open, is there another way?</p>
