   1 * Introduction  -*-compilation-*-       (Copyright information at end of file)
   2
   3 This shows the different kinds of messages compile recognizes by default and
   4 how they are rendered.  It is intended both to help you decide which matchers
   5 you need and as a test of the matchers.  Move the mouse over a colored part or
   6 use `compilation-message-face', to see how much text was actually matched.
   7
   8 Note that the following example line should NOT be highlighted:
   9 Compilation started at Sat Jul  8 15:19:25
  10
  11 The important part is the symbol(s) line at the beginning of each entry.
  12 These are the symbols you can customize `compilation-error-regexp-alist' for,
  13 to match the messages shown in that entry.  A few complex cases have more than
  14 one symbol, which should be selected together.

 324 This stupid precompiler wraps lines at column 80 in the middle of a file name.
 325 There is no obvious way of detecting this or turning it off.  But if you
 326 delete the newline (probably needs M-x toggle-read-only), the file name will
 327 automatically be reparsed, so that you can then go there.
