Variable: compilation-first-column

compilation-first-column is a variable defined in compile.el.gz.

Value

1

Documentation

This is how compilers number the first column, usually 1 or 0.

If this is buffer-local in the destination buffer, Emacs obeys that value, otherwise it uses the value in the *compilation* buffer. This enables a major mode to specify its own value.

Probably introduced at or before Emacs version 24.1.
