Improve readability of 'Messages' by keeping some newline characters

dryo commented 5 years ago

When compiling the results in the Message pane are all in one line because the newline characters get lost or are filtered. Sometimes I want to have a look at the messages but they are not easy to the eye. I'd like to see some newlines being kept.

Environment

TeXstudio: 2.12.16
Qt: 5.12.1
OS: Windows 7 x64 (Running out of time! I need to upgrade!)
TeX distribution: miktex 2.9
Compiler: xelatex

Expected behaviour

Have an output similar to the one I get from Windows Command Line e.g. like this:

stdin -> main.pdf
[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14]
[15 xdvipdfmx:warning: << /Rotate 90 >> found. (Not supported yet) ]
[16 xdvipdfmx:warning: << /Rotate 90 >> found. (Not supported yet) ]
[17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31]

xdvipdfmx:warning: PDF destination "glo:auto3cfrd-g" not defined.
xdvipdfmx:warning: PDF destination "glo:3pard-g" not defined.
xdvipdfmx:warning: PDF destination "Hfootnote.1" not defined.
xdvipdfmx:warning: PDF destination "Hfootnote.2" not defined.
xdvipdfmx:warning: PDF destination "Hfootnote.3" not defined.
xdvipdfmx:warning: PDF destination "Hfootnote.4" not defined.
xdvipdfmx:warning: PDF destination "glo:prpd-g" not defined.
xdvipdfmx:warning: PDF destination "glo:3ptrd-g" not defined.
xdvipdfmx:warning: PDF destination "glo:hvdc" not defined.

Actual behavior

The output is all on one line like this:

stdin -> main.pdf [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15 xdvipdfmx:warning: << /Rotate 90 >> found. (Not supported yet) ][16 xdvipdfmx:warning: << /Rotate 90 >> found. (Not supported yet) ][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31] xdvipdfmx:warning: PDF destination "glo:auto3cfrd-g" not defined. xdvipdfmx:warning: PDF destination "glo:3pard-g" not defined. xdvipdfmx:warning: PDF destination "Hfootnote.1" not defined. xdvipdfmx:warning: PDF destination "Hfootnote.2" not defined. xdvipdfmx:warning: PDF destination "Hfootnote.3" not defined. xdvipdfmx:warning: PDF destination "Hfootnote.4" not defined. xdvipdfmx:warning: PDF destination "glo:prpd-g" not defined. xdvipdfmx:warning: PDF destination "glo:3ptrd-g" not defined. xdvipdfmx:warning: PDF destination "glo:hvdc" not defined. 721151 bytes written

How to reproduce

Just compile something with some warnings. I have to admit I didn't test it on another machine.

@timhoffm could you give a comment on this ?

@dryo please provide a full minimal example. I cannot reproduce this.

I am new to GitHub and I apologize if this is not the proper way to interact, but I have a very similar issue. You can find below an example of what I see as output log in the Messages panel. It seems that final parentheses break the lines and, in addition, blank lines are added. I would like to have the output in the same format as that I obtain from the command line. I am using pdflatex from TeXLive 2020, TeXstudio 3.0.1 (git 3.0.1) Using Qt Version 5.12.1, compiled with Qt 5.12.1 R, Windows 10.

As an example of my previuos comment, use pdflatex to compile the following:

\documentclass{article} \begin{document} This is a test. \end{document}

I get the output you can see in TeXstudio-output.txt. You can compare it to what I get from the terminal in terminal-output.txt. The second one is much more readable.
