Hi all,
I just found about TeX-error-overview, but when I first tried to use it it just
complained that there were "no errors or warning to show". Reading through the
implementation, I realized that it filters warnings using
TeX-error-list-skip-warning-p, which itself excludes all warnings by default
(maybe the message should be changed? It could say "no errors or warning to
show; try customizing `…'"? Also, the error list has a menu that allows me to
change what kind of errors are displayed but it's useless here: AucTeX errors
out instead of showing an empty list when there's nothing to display)
I found this default surprising, until I realized that it's also used for
TeX-next-error (and it makes a lot of sense to jump to errors first, instead of
warnings). So now I have my own wrapper that binds TeX-debug-warnings and
TeX-debug-bad-boxes to t around a call to TeX-error-overview; that's not very
user-friendly.
Maybe we need separate parameters for the error list and for the next-error
function? I don't usually want to browse through warnings if there are errors,
but I seldom want to see a list of only errors. Another option would be to
show all warnings in the error list when there are no errors.
In any case, I think it would make sense to have a different default for the
errors and warnings list and for the next-error function.
Cheers and thanks!
Clément.

Yes: laziness ;-) Patch installed, thank you for the suggestion!
