\begin_layout Abstract
The listerrors program used to be compiled as a C program and installed
 as 
\emph on
BINDIR/listerrors
\emph default
 along with \SpecialChar LyX
 in order to perform some simple re-formatting of noweb and
 GCC error messages.
 This document describes and implements the Python version of the same program.

What is

listerrors
\begin_inset Quotes erd
\end_inset

? Usually, \SpecialChar LyX
 has great support for parsing of error messages.
 For each error in the log file, \SpecialChar LyX
 pops up an error box at that location
 in the \SpecialChar LyX
 window.
 The error scanning routines expect these errors to be in a certain format
 (similar to \SpecialChar LaTeX
 errors).
 When dealing with Literate Programs, you have

 as well as gcc error messages (and potentially others).
 The listerrors program attempts to standardize these error messages to
 a format that \SpecialChar LyX
 can parse and react to.
\end_layout

\begin_layout Standard
In a nutshell, the problems with the old implementation of listerrors that
 bug 190 refers to were::
\end_layout

\begin_layout Enumerate
It was a C program and it was installed in the user path in the same directory
 as \SpecialChar LyX
.
 Having such a generically named binary in, for example, 
\emph on
/usr/bin
\emph default
, was potentially confusing.
\end_layout

\begin_layout Enumerate
It required that noweb be installed on the compiling machine (the source
 was extracted by noweb from 
\emph on
SRCDIR/examples/Literate.lyx
\emph default
, compiled and installed by 
\begin_inset Quotes eld
\end_inset

make install
\begin_inset Quotes erd
\end_inset

).
\end_layout

\begin_layout Standard
The new version deals with these problems in the following fashion:
\end_layout

\begin_layout Enumerate
Both the example file (this document) and the program are to be added to
 the \SpecialChar LyX
 CVS repository.
\end_layout

\begin_layout Enumerate
The program itself will be installed in 
\emph on
SHAREDIR/lyx/scripts
\emph default
, along with other \SpecialChar LyX
-specific helper scripts.
\end_layout

Filtering errors

 to push back lines that are read in to be read again later.
 We solve this problem by implementing a 
\begin_inset Quotes eld
\end_inset

getline
\begin_inset Quotes erd
\end_inset

 and 
\begin_inset Quotes eld
\end_inset

pushline
\begin_inset Quotes erd

 set of functions:
