Hi Andre,

to be honest, I’m not a regex wizard; not to speak of Vim’s errorformat
syntax which adds some level of abstraction. I don’t understand why we
need continuation lines ( +C ) for example.
My initial idea was to use non-greedy matching of parens

        exec 'setlocal efm+=%-Q%.%\\{-})%r'
        exec 'setlocal efm+=%-P%.%\\{-}(%f%r'

but it doesn’t work well. I just don’t get how these rules are
processed. What is done with the rest %r? Is it fed in from the
beginning or is it passed on to the next rule in the sequence?
Anyway, the pushes and pops of the filename stack are never balanced, no
matter what I tried. It seems that once you use more than bare-bones
LaTeX and add more packages that have their own output things get messy.
Still, if there’s stuff like "(SPQR)" it shouldn’t matter because it
will not be on the stack for long. How do, e.g., WinEdt or other editors
do it?

I hope someone more knowledgeable will weigh in on this.
