BuildMessages: error message to long to be viewed comfortably

hi everybody,

lately I'm using the STL often in my code, vectors, maps, and their iterators, even const_iterators. As I am rather a beginner I put in lots of errors and the compiler complains and it's output is so damn long due to those iterators  :) that it just does not fit in the available line in BuildMessages. Now comes the anoiing part: scrolling to the end of the line just to be able toread the whole text (often I found the real interesting clou way down the end of the error message) is really quite nerve treading. Other programms allow to drag the column separator just as far as one likes, way beyond the actual visible field of the pane, and at the same time scrolling automatically as you go.

Is it posible to implement this on the pane of BuildMessages?

Regards

Just double click the right-most column separator, so its size becomes that of the longest message.

If you want to make STL errors a bit more understandable, try STLFilt. There must be at least two threads in these forums about it. What I don't remember is if anyone actually explained how to set it up in an easy way to use it with Code::Blocks. The search option of the forums should be enough to find them.

Note that this doesn't work on linux (well at least not in opensuse 10.3), anyone can confirm this doesn't work on linux ?
And secondly , what can we do about it : ideas ?
