quickfix not syntax highlighted and cannot jump

[noscripter]

issue description

I'm using :AsyncRun! ag 'xxx' to grep in my project, and I expect the quickfix to open with syntax highlighted and jumpable. Yet the quickfix content is not highlighted and not jumpable as usual. This issues occurs frequently without constant triggering conditions(at least I haven't figured out yet). This is quite annoying, hopefully you can help me with this problem.

env info

I'm using vim-plug to install asyncrun.vim, and the current hash id in ~/.vim/plugged/asyncrun.vim is 014e2e2fe51ad4b1a774cffa0f12887767d952eb. After uploading the plugin, I've restarted vim and the problem still exist.

I'm using vim in iterm and its version is as follows:

update

It might be related with other plugins I've installed, I've commented the usage of several plugins for further investigation.

Check your errorformat settings, it is used to match quickfix items and identify errors from predefined patterns, it can be set by:

:set errorformat=xxx
:setlocal errorformat=xxx

or specified by each :AsyncRun command:

:AsyncRun -errorformat=xxx  COMMAND
