[Vim-latex-devel] [PATCH] Update errorformat to support (pdf)latex -file-line-error

[Ted P. <te...@te...>]

The attached patches to compiler/tex.vim configure the Vim-LaTeX suite
to parse error messages when

         latex -file-line-error

is used. This option tells LaTeX to produce more C-like error messages
so that Vim doesn't have to do parentheses acrobatics to figure out the
corresponding file. However, warnings are still in LaTeX's lisp-y
format, and so a good latex wrapper is still warranted if you care about
warnings.

The second patch updates the tex.vim modeline to match the conventional
Vim-LaTeX source modeline.

Added errorformat (efm) support for latex -file-line-error (which 
sanitizes error messages for Vim)
