   I use IM to communicate with my coworkers about bugs that we're
working on. The opener for that kind of conversation is usually "About
bug 234233...". I have a pattern that matches on 'bug (\d+)' (I can't
remember the exact regex, but it looks something like that) and runs
'firefox http://our.bug.tracker/bugid=$1'. That way I don't need to do
a pesky cut and paste.

   Incidentally, the patternlinks plugin could be used as a more
general way to define links in plain text (eg, www.foo.com,
http://kittens.com). But I doubt there is much interest in tearing
that stuff out.
