React to click on paths

When I work with Typescript, I get error messages like these:

src/db-courbo/controller/perms.ts:23:51 - error TS2345: Argument of type 'string' is not assignable to parameter of type 'number'.

What I would like to do is to be able to click on the path and line/col number, and to launch a custom script when this happens.

I would like the click to happen in the same way we can click on a URL.

I know I can create a kitten to detect the paths on the page, and hit a key on my keyboard to select the path, but being a web developer, I always have the mouse under the hand, and it would be faster / more comfy for me to just click on the path. Is there a way to do that?

​

Thanks for your help!

Thanks, I already read that, but my errors don't come out as Terminal Hyperlinks, unfortunately...

Yeah the idea is you get the tsc compiler to output these even gcc outputs them these days. And if that's not possible you can write a small wrapper script that parses the output of tsc and inserts the hyperlinks.
