FWIW, I want it! Firstly, it is consistent behaviour. Secondly, I like the highlighting that instantly shows me the failing line, instead of having to look for the line containing the cursor -- blinking the whole line is faster (for me) that having to look for the cursor. Having two timers, one for next-error and one for -no-select would be the most flexible solution. Alternatively, there could be one timer which works for both if set to a number, or if set to a cons (NO-SELECT . SELECT) it specifies different timers for the two functions. -- Kim F.
