[seqfan] Searching OEIS question

I am trying to find all "nested recurrence relations" that occur in OEIS.
These have the form a(n) = ....a(..... a ( ..... ) ..... ) where the
parens are nested as shown.
How to do this in a semi-intelligent fashion? I started just trying to
find entries
that contained "a(a(". The trouble is that the oeis seems to treat "("
as a wildcard.
Is there some way to force it to recognize the "(" character? Or search
for the
more general expression at the beginning of this message? Thanks for
any help.
