How to split string into a dictionary

It can be done using LINQ ToDictionary() extension method:

string s1 = "(colorIndex=3)(font.family=Helvicta)(font.bold=1)";
string[] t = s1.Split(new[] { '(', ')' }, StringSplitOptions.RemoveEmptyEntries);

Dictionary<string, string> dictionary =
                      t.ToDictionary(s => s.Split('=')[0], s => s.Split('=')[1]);

EDIT: The same result can be achieved without splitting twice:

Dictionary<string, string> dictionary =
           t.Select(item => item.Split('=')).ToDictionary(s => s[0], s => s[1]);
