Dear Emacs devlopers,
May I ask you to modify compilation-mode to accept file names with
spaces? I'm contacting at emacs-devel@gnu.org because it is presented
as maintainer in the header of compile.el.
It was reported recently in bug-auctex mail list that file names with
space are not recognized in the output of "lacheck" and "chktex"
commands in AUCTeX:
https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=36483
AUCTeX (an advanced major mode for TeX documents,
https://www.gnu.org/software/auctex/ ) entrust compilation-mode with all
the jobs with respect to those two commands. It turned out that
compilation-mode is not ready for file names with spaces, at least for
the output of lacheck and chktex. The relevant entry in
`compilation-error-regexp-alist-alist' is:
(comma
"^\"\\([^,\" \n\t]+\\)\", line \\([0-9]+\\)\
\\(?:[(. pos]+\\([0-9]+\\))?\\)?[:.,; (-]\\( warning:\\|[-0-9 ]*(W)\\)?" 1 2 3 (4))
The regular expression in this entry excludes any space in the file name
explicitly, so it doesn't pick up the warnings for file names with
spaces, which look like:
"filename with spaces.tex", line 5.6:(#18) Use either `` or '' as an alternative to `"'.
After I changed the above entry to a form quoted below, compilation-mode
detected the warnings as expected for both lachack and chktex outputs:
(comma
"^\"\\([^,\"\n\t]+\\)\", line \\([0-9]+\\)\
\\(?:[(. pos]+\\([0-9]+\\))?\\)?[:.,; (-]\\( warning:\\|[-0-9 ]*(W)\\)?" 1 2 3 (4))
I'm not sure whether this exclusion of spaces is mandatory for robust
operation of compilation-mode. If not the case, is it acceptable to
modify compilation-mode in some way to work with file names with space?
The core feature of AUCTeX is designed to work with file names with
spaces, so it can work more coherently as a whole if compilation-mode is
aware of such file names as well.
Best regards,
Ikumi Keita
