Where does RegexBuddy store its operational data between uses?

Question

Ok, I'm an idiot.

So, I was working on a regex that took a lot of time. After perfecting it, I updated my working machine with a blazing fast hard drive and realized that I never saved the regular expression anywhere and just used RegexBuddy's autoload to save it. Dumb dumb dumb.

I sent a copy of the regular expression to a colleague, but now he cannot find it (or a record of our message). My best hope of finding a regex is to find it in RegexBuddy on the old hard drive. RegexBuddy automatically saves everything you did, every time you close it. I did a preliminary search to try to determine where it actually stores working data, but I have no success.

This question is the result of my dumb behavior, but I thought it was a good chance to finally ask a question here.

It was annoyingly annoying ...

If you need to export a RegexBuddy story, you can take a look at this one that prints your story to the console, just like Json.
