Is anybody aware of an Emacs library that provides ways to gather a list of errors in a separate buffer and make that navigatable? The output one gets when using `M-x compile RET' looks a bit crude. I am thinking of something more sophisticated.
For example, if a LaTeX run contains errors, the user could ask AUCTeX to display a list of all errors in a separate window. So, in the upper window one would see the LaTeX file while in the lower window something like ./file.tex:16: Misplaced alignment tab character &. ./file.tex:16: Missing $ inserted. ./file.tex:17: Missing $ inserted. When placing point on a line it would be highlighted. Typing <RET> or <g> would jump to the error in the respective LaTeX buffer and bring the buffer to front in the upper window. Typing <SPC> would "expand" the line and display the error message, its context in the log file, and possibly a help message. One could navigate through errors with <n> (next error) or <p> (previous error). Typing <l> would open the log file at the respective place of the error. Typing <q> would close the buffer. And so on. -- Ralf _______________________________________________ auctex-devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/auctex-devel
