Let me accompany it with graphic example, see this 5-min demo from
MATLAB devs (you could start viewing from 3rd minute)

3) I had deal with MATLAB, and I have to confess they have MUCH better
handling of bugs and warnings than Eric IDE. Eric has bug image, that
is binded to a certain line of code, that isn't showed all the time
(sometimes it requires much time for scrolling a big file to locate
the line of code marked with bug). MATLAB has slim horizontal lines
that are placed in 0-100% of showed edit window height, so it doesn't
matter which lines of code I'm observing for now, I don't have to
scroll code, when I see horizontal mark I just press it and editor
moves cursor to the problem line of code. BTW there are 2 types of the
lines in matlab : red (error) and yellow (warning). Sometimes they
appear "on-fly", i.e. even before user invokes "save" or "run" buttons.
Also, MATLAB has square image in the top of file (above area related
to breakpoints) about 1 x 1 sm, and that one is: red (there is at
least one error), yellow (there is at least one warning), gray (no
issues found). When I press it, cursor is moved to next code line with
an issue (i.e. error or warning).
