Thanks for the review, compact output from the makefile seems reasonable. > The compact output is indeed less verbose and better suited for grepping > etc, but it comes with a readability penalty. both formats have their disadvantages, but the hope is that the person working on a particular harness test file can use the mode that is needed for his/her situation depending on what they are looking for. For example if they are just reviewing the errors, then the old format is good, but if they are looking for a particular type of error then the compact format is best. The runharness can be run independantly of the makefile, so no harm in having the compact as default output. News entry added and merged into master. Mesar
