What do you need this for? To filter files in a filechooser component? To
validate user input data?

To answer tese questions would help to give you a usefull solution.

Just read the file into RAM and use that. Normally a pattern would
live in a properties file not take up a whole file.

See http://mindprod.com/applets/fileio.html for how to read a giant
great string.
