Description Christoph 2009-12-11 12:41:21 CET 
Standard Bugz pattern: /bug ?#?([0-9]+)/
My suggestion: /bug\s*#?\s*([0-9]+)/

Differences: 
Matched by the standard AND by my suggestion: "Bug #123", "Bug 123", "Bug123" (where the white space is an actual space character).
NOT matched by the standard, but by my suggestion: "Bug # 123", "Bug[tab]#123", "Bug [tab]123", etc.

Explanation: \s matches any kind of white space, \s* takes as much of it as there is (or nothing, if there's nothing). This is applied before and after the #.

General remark: Thanks for the great feature!
