My compiler (SGI MIPSpro C compiler - IRIX 6.4) works like this.
I have written a script mve (make vim errors), through which I pipe my make
output, which translates output of the following form:
cfe: Error: syntax.c, line 4: Syntax Error
int i[12;
------------^
into:
cl.c, line 4, col 12 : Syntax Error
(in vim notation: %f, line %l, col %c : %m)
You might be able to tailor this for your compiler's output.
