I have for a while just plovr (a javascript compiler). The output from
plovr is infortunately not following the usual standard so Emacs does
not recognize it. Two questions:
- I can't remember how to change the way Emacs looks for errors. And
it is hard to find it. Should not that be a bit easier? For example
compilation-mode might have a link to it.
- What is the normal formatting of compilation errors called?

The one we recommend is the GNU standard (looks like "file:line:message").

They should use "file:line:column:message".

According to
http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/standards.html#Errors
its
sourcefile:lineno: message
and
sourcefile:lineno:column: message
or
sourcefile:lineno.column: message
(Note the space between the colon after lineno/column and message.)
