gollark: It could be shorter with optimized `{n}` insertion.
gollark: Hmm, they're actually the same length, interesting.
gollark: `aæ{7}|æ(aæ{6}|æ(aæ{5}|æ(aæ{4}|æ(aæ{3}|æ(aæ{2}|æ(aæ|æa))))))`
gollark: In certain situations (e.g. if you give it `æææaææææ` or something) it comes out with very good regexes.
gollark: Mine basically makes a FSM thingy in a horrible format, converts into a less horrible one supported by `greenery`, and uses `greenery` to convert it to a regex.
