+<h4>Controlling How Clang Displays Diagnostics</h4>
 
+<p>When Clang emits a diagnostic, it includes rich information in the output,
+and gives you fine-grain control over which information is printed.  Clang has
+the ability to print this information, and these are the options that control
+it:</p>
+
+<p>
+<ol>
+<li>A file/line/column indicator that shows exactly where the diagnostic occurs
+    in your code [<a href="#opt_fshow-column">-fshow-column</a>, <a
+    href="#opt_fshow-source-location">-fshow-source-location</a>].</li>
+<li>A categorization of the diagnostic as a note, warning, error, or fatal
+    error.</li>
+<li>A text string that describes what the problem is.</li>
+<li>An option that indicates how to control the diagnostic (for diagnostics that
+    support it) [<a 
+   href="#opt_fdiagnostics-show-option">-fdiagnostics-show-option</a>].</li>
+<li>The line of source code that the issue occurs on, along with a caret and
+    ranges that indicate the important locations [<a
+    href="opt_fcaret-diagnostics">-fcaret-diagnostics</a>].</li>
+<li>"FixIt" information, which is a concise explanation of how to fix the
+    problem (when Clang is certain it knows) [<a
+    href="opt_fdiagnostics-fixit-info">-fdiagnostics-fixit-info</a>].</li>
+<li>A machine-parsable representation of the ranges involved (off by
+    default) [<a
+      href="opt_fprint-source-range-info">-fprint-source-range-info</a>].</li>
+</ol></p>
