IIRC, file(line,col) is common in the windows world, and I've seen other variations, too. Frankly, I think any editor that's hardcoded to expect any one single style is doing it wrong.

I'd argue that should be baseline for any editor. That said, getting all editors to be that flexible is probably about as likely as getting all CLI tools to output the same file/line format, so it's probably best (or at least, most realistic) to whip up a little streaming IO tool that takes (and optionally detects) one format and outputs another. (The Unix Philosophy is really growing on me...even if modern Linux seems surprisingly inconsistent about actually using the principle...)

Yeah, TextMate expects a colon as separator. That DMD uses a comma forced me to write a completely new error handler in TextMate. -- /Jacob Carlborg
