What's wrong:

  The following performs as expected:

		print "@(@large(@center(@color(red)You have new @bold(MAIL) "+
			"on @bold("+protect($1)+"!))))\n"
		print "\n"
		print "From: @bold("+protect($2)+")\n"
		print "To: @bold("+protect($3)+")\n"
		print "Subject: @italic(@bold(@large("+protect($4)+")))"
		put
		exit

  However, if I change the first line by removing the @( at the
  beginning and the corresponding ) at the end, the entire message
  prints in large.

  See me for a demonstration.

What should have happened:

  If I close off the large environment with a parenthesis on the first
  line, it should close off on the first line.
