Setting the compile-command history in dotel files

Setting the compile-command history in dotel files

[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 546 bytes --]

Currently I do M-x compile, type a custom compile command, then later do M-x
compile and run a different compile command. Then later I can do M-x compile
M-p to cycle through the history ring of previous compile commands. What I
would like to do is set this history ring upon startup though my dotel file.
Is this possible? Currently all I can do is set one compile command with

(custome-set-variables '(compile-command "compile_command_1"))

I tried playing with setting compile-command to a list of strings, but
couldn't get anything to work.

Session.el keeps the compile history in an "external" file ...

Have you considered setting up make targets instead of typing a "custom
command?"
