In event cases we can write something like "Something has been done in case 123" and FogBugz automatically replaces "case 123" with link to case with number 123. And it's great.

But in other countries we used to write in our native languages. In Russia it's Russian, obvious :) So the links auto insertion became not so nice. We have to write "Это было сделано в кейсе case 123" or "Это было сделано в case 123". So it would be great if we can define a list of synonyms to word "case" for purpose of autocompletion. And it should be a list, not a single word, because in Russian we have words declensions (different forms), i.e. "кейс", "кейсе" where in English you use only the "case" word. And we also want to be able to use word "case", so we have 3 words to serve as links autoinsertion keywords.

In other countries (i.e. Germany or Spain) they have their own set of words. That's why setting these keywords through options would be the reasonable improvement.

I think there is a place somewhere in fogbugz DB where you can add the synonyms. – acoolaum Apr 4 2011 at 7:06

If you change the localization settings for your FogBugz site configuration, it will look for the word 'case' in that particular language. I'm not sure how many languages it supports out of the box, but that may be worth a try.

Well, I don't change FogBugz interface language, I use it in English, but all the correspondence and conversations and case names are in Russian, so it wouldn't work :(. – Dmitry Lobanov Apr 22 2011 at 5:24
@Dmitry You could also try a Bugmonkey script with some regex that looks for case. Or if you are running a licensed version of FogBugz, check out the TranslateTextIntoLinksImpl Function in util.was. You should be able to hack that function to get it to recognize additional words for case. – Ben McCormack Apr 22 2011 at 12:48
