Of course, there is: this is Emacs!

It goes like this:

  - first time you compile, type "M-x compile RET" and then type the
    compilation command

  - second time you compile, type "M-x recompile RET"

  - thereafter, "M-x" followed by enough up-arrow keys to get to the
    "recompile" command will do
