Re: Quickfix list with multi-line messages

Hello guys,

Thanks for responses. It looks like what I am trying to achieve is
currently not possible. Yes, I read I can wrap lines, this is why I
added my comment in brackets in previous email. Just to let you know
why I asked this question. Javac compiler returns output in multi-line
format and I would like to show it in quickfix window. Formatting is
important because for example ^ sign is used to show exactly where the
error is (for instance indicates place where class is missing, I know
I can use signs or balloons). It looks like I need to take other
approach and look for solution to show nicely formatted compiler
output in one line.

Thanks,

Marcin
