`M-x compile' invokes Emacs' compilation mode; you can then accept the
default command line of "make -k" or insert one of your own.  The
results of compilation are displayed in a buffer; you can right-click on
warnings and errors to be taken to their location in your source.  You
can use Emacs with any compiler, not just gcc.

P.S.:  Compilation under Emacs built for MS-DOS is synchronous
(single-tasking), so nothing in your compilation script can accept
keyboard input (Emacs tends to barf noisily if that happens).
