Ugh. Please not. Expect() accepts a nongreedy regular expression. ".*" is the
lazy "match absolutely anything" pattern. Generally overused and imprecise.
Iranna Mathapati knows what to look for.
See the documentation for the re module, specificly the regular expression
syntax:
https://docs.python.org/3/library/re.html#regular-expression-syntax
To match letters, digits and "#", try:
[0-9a-zA-Z#]*
