Fixed a missing parenthesis typo. 

(PS: I created a GitLab account just to submit this typo fix. The signup process required a lot of needless stuff that wasted a bunch of my time and which has no current relevance whatsoever to what I'm doing e.g. creating a group and project when I have no interest in doing so etc. Perhaps you should switch to a site that has much better understanding of basic user interface/experience design. The experience has definitely left a negative initial impression of GitLab's sense of judgement and taste compared to e.g. GitHub etc.)

## Configure File
CMake allows you to access CMake variables from your code using `configure_file`. This command copies a file (traditionally ending in `.in` from one place to another, substituting all CMake variables it finds. If you want to avoid replacing existing `${}` syntax in your input file, use the `@ONLY` keyword. There's also a `COPY_ONLY` keyword if you are just using this as a replacement for `file(COPY`.

This functionality is used quite frequently; for example, on `Version.h.in`:
