Deletes text in brackets from a txt file

Ipolit (2)
Hello!

I need a little help with my code. Program should open a txt file, read it and make a new one with the same text but eliminate text in brackets.

For example>>
Opened file>>> abc (gta bty) nda (cde
fgy adc) dmy nb
Created file>>> abc nda dmy nb

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>

This is what I have done, but it is not enough. Because it works only with given example, if I add some more words in brackets it will give me wrong output. Any ideas???
int main(void){
char tmp[50], tmp1[50];
char * pch;
char ni[15],no[15];
FILE *fi, *fo;
printf("File to be modified is: ");
scanf("%s",ni);
printf("Result file is: ");
scanf("%s",no);
fi=fopen(ni,"r");
fo=fopen(no,"w");
while (!feof(fi)){
fscanf(fi, "%s", &tmp);
if(pch=strchr(tmp,'(')){

fscanf(fi, "%s", &tmp);
if(pch=strchr(tmp,')')){
}else{
fscanf(fi, "%s", &tmp);
if(pch=strchr(tmp,')')){
}
else{
fscanf(fi, "%s", &tmp);
}
}

}else{
printf("%s ", tmp);
}
}
fclose(fi);
fclose(fo);
getchar();
getchar();
}
