Emacs regex to grok csc compilation errors
People have asked about this. This is the regular expression I use to allow emacs' next-error function to handle csc error messages. It is included in the emacs.el that I published previously. Here it is excerpted for convenience.
;; to allow next-error to work with csc.exe:
(setq compilation-scroll-output t)
(setq-default compilation-error-regexp-alist
; (append
'(
