I'm not sure you understood me , i get the warnings/errors fine i just
don't want the entire script printed on an error. the name will do

I do not understand why it has to print the entire script on an error.
It doesn't just print a "listing" It prints the module name and error
position on the 1st line then prints the entire script out!
if the script is long enough it goes beyond my terminal scroll limit.
Seems erroneous (for my single script usage)

On error i get something like the following message...












*MMain.module:6:12: error: Syntax error# Gambas Project File
3.0Title=Gambas ScriptStartup=MMain' Gambas module file' Gambas script
filePublic Sub Main()Dim sBasesShell "dpkg-query --list linux*|grep
\"generic\"|grep ii|awk '{print $2}" To sBases*

*the rest of the script.....*

The 1st line
MMain.module:6:12: error: Syntax error

tells me all I need to know, i'd like to not see the rest
If is makes an alternative project file so the line numbers are different
to my actual script then can it not print just the line in error.

Was just a thought.
All the best
