    Valtteri> x-win.el should probably add a second regexp to the alist, such 
as:
    Valtteri> (add-to-list 'display-format-alist 
'("\\`\\[[^]]*\\]:[0-9]+\\(\\.[0-9]+\\)?\\'" . x))

That regexp won't work, since now youʼre requiring the '[' and ']' to
be present.

"\\`\\[?[^]]*\\]?:[0-9]+\\(\\.[0-9]+\\)?\\'" would fix that, but since
we donʼt really care what comes before the ':', so would

"\\`.*:[0-9]+\\(\\.[0-9]+\\)?\\'"
