[Jay Swackhamer]

In the string below, it's from a parameter file.

I need to break it out by what's the longest string between the '('  
and the ')'
and then the shorter strings between '(' and ')' , then the and/or's  
so I can translate/process the logic.

the include_1 would be a condition name, and the f7/f10/f8 etc are  
field names that are substrings of lines of data.
