Thanks for your response.
The compilation part is OK. The problem is that it is not possible to
select the errors in any way. Not by C-x or clicking mouse 2 button or
any other way.
The question is if my compiler is emitting messages in a format that is
understood by emacs compile-mode, as you said.
How can I make the compile-mode to understand my compiler messages?
