It would be cool. If you place this in your .emacs file, it should allow you to use C-x` to find perl generated errors. Note: I got this by grabbing the compilation-error-regexp from compile.el in GNU Emacs 18.55.3, and tacked on a third alternative which recognizes Perl's error reporting syntax. Buyer beware: I tested this, but don't claim it is fool-proof. (load-library "compile") (setq compilation-error-regexp "\\([^ :\n]+\\(: *\\|, line \\|(\\)[0-9]+\\)\\|\\([0-9]+ *of *[^ \n]+\\|[^ \n]+ at line [0-9]+\\)")
