Right, yes, this is the side-effect of making patterns case-insensitive that I hypothesised about above:

It would probably be better to make the pattern matching case insensitive, since you're not the only person to want to use it like that. I don't remember the reason I made it case sensitive to begin with, beyond marginally simpler code. Oh, and that the fact you can match parts of words means that something like "ALG" would match "algae" (a false positive), but I think the usefulness of case-insensitive matching outweighs that.

The reason that it is beneficial to not match only whole words is that you would expect "To NSE: ..." or even something like "[NSE]" to get picked up. Note that there are no spaces between the watch term and punctuation in those titles. However it should be possible to change the programming to exclude matches for part of a word, while still allowing punctation around the term. I'll look at this later.

You could allow users putting in regex surrounded with slashes for those who need to get around that problem.
