Thanks. This tool was really more or less for fun but I'd been thinking 
about it for a while. According to some benchmarks it appears the generated 
patterns are pretty fast. When I get some more time, I definitely want to 
see if converting the word trie to a DAWG and then to a regular expression 
will produce even better patterns. Of course, this means pattern 
construction will be slower.

More or less I'd like some input on ways to improve the efficiency of the 
whole thing.
