Start point: I want to learn RegEx
Not a real problem: No example text to try regexes on.
Easy solution: Making the text file myself by randomly throwing chars into a txt file.
Real problem: getting greedy and trying to put 10^9 (1 GB) of chars into the txt file.
The program runs since an hour and i am not sure if should kill it or wait if the program terminates at some point.
:D

@turi if it's backtracking a lot, might take several years to finish. there was a website that teaches regex in a very intuitive manner but I forget the URL
