## Usage
Let's say you want to find keys whose fingerprints begin with `C0FFEE` and store them `secret.asc`.
The regex for this is `^C0FFEE`. Now, simply use the following command to start the search:

On my machine with an AMD Ryzen 7 5800X processor, Fingerprunk is able to generate and check about
43500 keys per second. This means that for finding a fingerprint with a string of *n* specific
hexadecimal digits at a specific place, I could expect the following runtimes until finding the
first key:
| *n* | expected tries | expected time |

As you can see, anything above 8 or 9 fixed digits is pretty much unfeasible, at least with
a normal personal computer.
