Supported languages/compilers
One of ideas behind Flymake was to create a universal syntax checker. Basically, all that is necessary to use flymake with a certain syntax check tool is to provide the error message patterns for that tool (in case they aren't already there) and write the code to create the command line to be used to run the tool.
The following table provides a summary of languages/compilers flymake was tested with.
