in thread strip out anything inbetween brackets

I will cheerfully risk begin viewed as "pretentious" if that's the result of an effort to communicate clearly, in the language of the listener or reader.

Oh, that's fair enough &mdash you're allowed to do that yourself, and in a Perl forum I agree with you and personally would say "parens" — but it seems a bit off to try and force pretentiousness on others!

how does UK-English distinguish among parens, squarebrackets, angle-brackets and curly-brackets?
(...)brackets
[...]square brackets
<...>angle brackets or angled brackets or pointy brackets (no real standard term, as they don't occur much as punctuation symbols in everyday life, outside of computer coding)
{...}braces
