regex for verilog error line

hello

i'm using textpad for compiling verilog
now i 've got troubles if i want my textpad to jump to the error line displayed in the errormessage
the errormsg looks like following:

C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\admin\Desktop\koschu14m2.v: L428: error: Illegal output port specification: '(null)'

where C:\doku...m2.v describes the file and L428 describes the line number,
now i created that regex
^(.*\.v): L([0-9]*): .*$
to match that both registers,
it works in every testenvironment but not in textpad,
maybe you can help me
thanks
PS: sorry for my bad english

That regular expression uses Posix regular expression syntax. You need to change your preferences:

Configure | Preferences | Editor

[X] Use POSIX regular expression syntax
