Anybody got something to make GNU Emacs compile mode recognize [La]TeX
error line numbers before I write a tiny broken one?

I got Jacob Gore's changes to compile.el, but am not too happy / am a
lisp chicken, so I feel the best way would be to have compile-command ==
"tex file < /dev/null| TeXerrNum", which would put cc compller style
error messages in the TeX output; just using standard compile.el.

TeXerrNum would count right and left "("'s, and would stack the current
"(file\.\(tex|aux\)" etc...  probably requiring me to use lex/yacc to
write TeXerrNum, not [n]awk, as I first planned.
