Is that the only/best way? No. You can also keep open a(n optionally minimised) second frame either with a buffer keeping open a file from your project's root directory, or a dired buffer from it, or the *compilation* buffer. When using GNU Emacs 23 you can in *compilation* buffer just type g (like update in dired) and the compilation process starts again. -- Greetings Pete If you're not confused, you're not paying attention.
