Also, there are a group of packages that start with the name
"flymake" that you might look into. It sounds like the
solution that you are looking for is what those packages
provide. For example, C-h P flymake states:
Flymake is a minor Emacs mode performing on-the-fly syntax checks.
"On-the-fly" sounds like what you have described. There are
many "flymake-" packages. Possibly one of them might be
close to what you are looking for, or you might need to
modify or extend one of them.
