Description
Suggestion:
tsc currently list the errors. Sometimes you want to see if the number of errors increases or decreases.
Proposition:
$ tsc
FooBar.tsx(66,59): error TS2339: Property 'query' does not exist on type 'Location'.
Hello.tsx(42,60): error TS2339: Property 'query' does not exist on type 'Location'.
dispatcher.ts(1,13): error TS6133: '_' is declared but never used.
World.test.ts(3,35): error TS7006: Parameter 'reason' implicitly has an 'any' type.
World.test.ts(3,43): error TS7006: Parameter 'promise' implicitly has an 'any' type.
World.test.ts(18,13): error TS6133: 'hello' is declared but never used.
mock.ts(194,23): error TS6133: 'ruleId' is declared but never used.
mock.ts(221,8): error TS2339: Property 'fetch' does not exist on type 'Window'.
Compilation done in 2.6s - 8 errors
$ tsc
[...]
Compilation aborted [...]
Could be the opportunity to display other informations (compilation time for example) given that it fits in a single line (72 columns).
(I'm not talking about --diagnostics)

Research direction
Start by locating the tsc diagnostic and command-line output entry points, then compare their behavior with the existing --diagnostics option. The work is done when compilation output includes a concise one-line summary with the error count and, where available, compilation status and timing.
