You can write a regex for what you need in the "Error regular expression" text box in the Build Commands configuration. I think you can also store the regexp in the `filetype.yourlanguage` file.

Yes, I was aware of this. As I said, *i was reading the [build-menu]*. The question was: how to distinguish errors from warnings and notices? I would like Geany to display errors in red, warnings in blue and notices in green. Is that possible? Unfortunately, the link you sent says nothing about this.
I have also read http://www.geany.org/manual/hacking.html#error-message-parsing which says:
New-style error message parsing is done with an extended GNU-style regex stored in the filetypes.foo file - see the [build_settings] information in the manual for details.
But it is not very helpful, since the manual on [build_settings] does not tell how to do it. (Or maybe there are two versions of that documentation and I'm looking at the wrong place?)
It looks like there's a lot of hardcoded stuff in `msgwindow.c`.
Some of these functions look relevant on a quick scan:
* msgwindow.c:801: parse_compiler_error_line() * msgwindow.c:248: get_color() * msgwindow.c:1189: show_build_result_message()
I'm not really too familiar with that code though, so maybe there is an easier way than hacking the source.
