Able to modify auto-bracketing?

Hi, I'm new to the list. I didn't find this in the archives so I wanted to ask here.

Is there a way of modifying the auto-bracketing feature so that instead of getting "()" when typing an open parantheses, I could get "(   )"? The way it is now, when I call another function within the parens the auto-bracketing fails unless I manually space the existing parens to not touch the cursor, e.g., "function(function()". I'm basically looking for a bit of space expansion to do "function( function( function() ) )".

Thanks for your time! Quanta on.
