Sample input:_

        (  ( ) )    ( )
 ( ( ( ( ( ( ( ( ( (( )))))))))))
(   ( ) ( ( ) ) ) (  ) ( ) ( ( ))
  ( ) (  (  ) )(   ( ( ( ) ) ) )
(( )) (( )) ((( ))) ( ) (((( ))))
   ( ()  ) ()  (( ( ) ))
(( ( ) ) ) ( ) (( ( )) ) () ( )()
    ()      (((((())))))

  (   (   )    ( (( ) ) )   ( ))

Sample output:

        (**( )*)    (*)
 (*( (*( (*( (*( (*((*)))))))))))
(***( )*( (*) )*) (**) (*) (*( ))
  (*) (**(  )*)(***( (*( )*) )*)
(( )) (( )) (((*))) (*) (((( ))))
   (*()**) ()  (( (*) ))
(( (*) )*) (*) (( (*))*) () (*)()
    ()      (((((())))))
(*****((*****((*****))***))*****)
 ((    )*(   )*(  )*( )*******)
      (**********(  (*)))(*) (())
(((((((((((((((( ))))))))))))))))
 (*) (*) (*) (( (( (*) )) )) (*)
