I presume that the editor that is mentionned in the menu should be able to handle these files; however, no editors ever came with the distribution. I can't quite figure out the format used to embed the line/position of the error. I just know that if I insert a blank line/space before an error, then something changes in the error file. Sigh, it is so easy to write human readable error files. Not everybody wants to use the same editors. If the info is in the German documentation, then please enlighten me. (Even though I am fluent in 2 languages [French/English], and know a little bit about other ones as well, German is not in my repertoire). Merci d'avance,
