Since my post I ended up analyzing the regexps and I managed to define one that works: ("\\([[:alnum:].]+\\)(\\([0-9].\\)) \\(?:Error\\|Warning\\): \\(?:[FEW][0-9]+ \\)" 1 2 nil nil 1) RC> It turns out there's a note in the sample file that the predefined RC> regexp for borland is for "Borland C++, C++Builder".
