 This means that a file name which is a single alphabetical letter will not be
 detected.
 
+The "%b" conversion is used to parse a buffer number.  This is useful for
+referring to lines in a scratch buffer or a buffer with no name.  If a buffer
+with the matching number doesn't exist, then that line is used as a non-error
+line.

 The "%p" conversion is normally followed by a "^".  It's used for compilers
 that output a line like: >

 7   Allow a window not to have a statusline.  Makes it possible to use a
     window as a buffer-tab selection.
 8   Allow non-active windows to have a different statusline. (Yakov Lerner)
