3This shows the different kinds of messages compile recognizes by default and
4how they are rendered. It is intended both to help you decide which matchers
5you need and as a test of the matchers. Move the mouse over a colored part or
6use `compilation-message-face', to see how much text was actually matched.

11The important part is the symbol(s) line at the beginning of each entry.
12These are the symbols you can customize `compilation-error-regexp-alist' for,
13to match the messages shown in that entry. A few complex cases have more than
14one symbol, which should be selected together.
