Seems to me that most people will either use script or redirect the make
output to a file. Computers are simply too fast and the output too
voluminous to catch warnings and errors as they scroll by. If you use
GCC you will probably have noticed that it inserts ansi color escape
sequences in an attempt to highlight portions of the messages. If you
peruse the typescript file or log file of your build then these escape
sequences are very distracting and make it more difficult than necessary
to read the message. GCC does have an option to turn them off.
For fossil builds on windows, create a file "config.w32" in the fossil
root directory with the contents:
CFLAGS=-fno-diagnostics-color
For unix (which I have not used for a while) I suspect you could just
invoke configure with:
env CFLAGS=-fno-diagnostics-color ./configure ...
