Description

I'm currently using ALE for java linting and it just show `error: cannot find symbol` when for example I make a typo on a variable.

What I would like to have is a error message like the one I got by using `make`

Is there any way to format the error message?
I've given a quick read to the doc, but apart of `%s` I've only found `%linter%` and `%severity%`
for `g:ale_echo_msg_format`.
