How do you use the "File watcher problems" inspection?
In the File Watchers Documentation, it says:
"The File watcher problems inspection is invoked by a running File Watcher and highlights errors specific for it."
Questions:
- What is considered to be a File Watcher" specific error"?
- How can I trigger/control this inspection from my custom File Watcher?

Hello Chad,
in case a transpiler is set as a file watcher then its errors might be parsed with filters (and they will be shown as inspections), which you can configure in Output Filters.
Olga,
Thanks for the response.
How would I make them be shown as inspections if I'm using a custom file watcher and filters?
In my case I'm compiling Elm and want to show the compiler errors as inspections - I have the error text and associated file/line/column data parsable, but I don't know how to make it show up as an in-editor inspection.
Is there an example of this anywhere which uses a custom file watcher and filter?
Thanks,

Chad,
in case filters are correctly configured and you can navigate from the file watcher's console to the Editor then this error will be highlighted in the Editor.
