# vimlatex: Script wrapper for TeX/LaTeX/etc. that sanitizes output to #           be compatible with Vim-LaTeX's errorformat. Prevents Vim #           from opening the wrong file after some errors. # #           This script is inspired by # # http://hermitte.free.fr/vim/ressources/vimfiles/compiler/vim-tex_sh.html # # and # # http://www.unix.com/shell-programming-scripting/20218-pipelining.html # # Original author: Ted Pavlic #                  ted@tedpavlic.com #                  http://www.tedpavlic.com/ # # Mercurial source code repository for original author's version: #                  http://hg.tedpavlic.com/vimlatex/ # # Copyright (c) 2008 Theodore P. Pavlic under MIT license (http://www.opensource.org/licenses/mit-license.php) # # Usage: vimlatex %command [%arguments] # #        where the command line: # #        %command %arguments # #        would texify as normal. In other words, the "vimlatex" command #        can simply be added before a given working command line. # # For more information (and history), see: # # http://phaseportrait.blogspot.com/2008/03/fixing-vim-latex-compiler-error.html #

install details

Place script somewhere in PATH, like: /usr/local/bin/vimlatex and make it executable, like: chmod 0755 /usr/local/bin/vimlatex Then, add "vimlatex" before any tex or latex build command lines. "vimlatex" is a wrapper that processes the output while maintaining the same return code. For example: latex myfile.tex and vimlatex latex myfile.tex both run "latex" on "myfile.tex", but the output from the second line will have error messages that should all make sense to Vim-LaTeX's error format.
