42: How do I make Emacs recognize my compiler's funny error messages? Write a program which runs the compiler as a child and filters its output, rearranging as necessary. Install with same name as compiler somewhere in path. Keith Moore wrote one such for a C compiler under AIX. ! Available via FTP (cs.utk.edu:readonly/aixcc.lex). Jim Frost wrote another for the IBM xlc compiler on the RS/6000. ! (I don't know if these are both for the same compiler.) Johnathan Vail ! wrote something for a High C compiler (`hc', which is one ! of the compilers on the RS/6000, although I think Johnathan wrote his ! program for hc on a different computer). !
