strings with '!' often turn up empty in xls about i18n-binder HOT 5 CLOSED

I did a search on the xls (more than 6000 rows) , none of the fields has a '!' 
except in the column with the chines translation and characters. 

easy to fix:
line 71 in PropertyFileContentParser is:
Pattern patternComment = Pattern.compile( "([^\\#]*)(\\!|\\#)(.*)" );
but should be: 
Pattern patternComment = Pattern.compile("([\\s]*)(\\!|\\#)(.*)");
according to 
http://download.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/util/Properties.html:
 "A comment line has an ASCII '#' or '!' as its first non-white space character"

Thanks for your additional mail, it made me recongnize the issue. 

You are completly right, the line you pointed out should be fixed like this. I 
will fix it as soon as possible.

Fixed this issue with 0.1.3 release

Can you please verify?

Had to change the above code again. Now I remembered why the pattern of a 
comment could not only beginn with spaces: the BOM of UTF-8 encoded files can 
be read in at the first line, and if the first line is a comment line it fails.

I changed it now to 
Pattern patternComment = Pattern.compile( "([^\\:\\=]{0,4}[\\s]*)(\\!|\\#)(.*)" 
);

which should apply fine, even if not perfectly what the spec says.
