Getting "-bash: syntax error near unexpected token `('" when I run a CLWWorkstation command.

Issue/Introduction
When attempting to run a CLW (Command Line Workstation) command I get the following error:
"-bash: syntax error near unexpected token `('" on a linux OS.
Example:
java -Xmx128M -Duser=admin -Dhost=localhost -Dport=5001 -jar CLWorkstation.jar list alerts matching (.*) in management modules matching (.*)
Cause
The issue is that the ( and ) signs of the (.*) regex and you need to use the escape character in front of them.
Environment
Any version of APM on a linux OS
Resolution
The correct syntax is \(.*\). So replace (.*) with \(.*\) and run the command again
Additional Information
For more information on CLW commands check APM Guide. (APM Version for the guide is controls at the top right "Versions" droplist.)
