Re: column numbers and ranges in error messages

[Per Bothner]

(1) Does anyone know any program (or program option) that emits:

   sourcefile:line1.column1-column2: message

or:

   sourcefile:line1:column1-column2: message

(2) Does anyone know of a program (or emacs mode) that makes use the column2?
Emacs compile.el will recognize the above syntax (at least the colon kind),
but it seems to throw it away.
