You do it like so:

	1) Load a source file:

		C-x C-f foo.c RET

	2) Invoke the `compile' command:

		M-x compile RET gcc -c foo.c RET

	3) Sit back and watch the fun.

	4) When the compilation exits, you can step through the error 
messages by either (1) right-click your mouse on the message in the 
*Compilation* buffer (that's where the messages are printed), or (2) by 
pressing `C-x `' to go forward or `M-- C-x `' to go back.

Note: `M-x' means press the `Alt' key and the `x' key, in case you didn't 
know.
