How about regex2.fat ?

There's an additional documentation bug:

A: Haha OS-driven regex engine go brrrrr

'brrrrr' is incorrect as it doesn't cover many uses of regex2fat such as making it go 'brr' or 'brrrrrr'. It should be generalized to

A: Haha OS-driven regex engine go br+

REGEX2~1 will cause confusion with the inevitable exFAT fork, regex2exfat. Not good.

@kiding what confusion? That would obviously be called REGEX2~2...
