Emacs package which allows you to easily run compile in a specific directory.
Run the command with M-x cd-compile. This will prompt you to enter a directory, and will then run compile in that directory.
To skip the prompt, set cd-compile-directory to the directory in which you want to run compile. It is probably most useful to do this as a file-local or directory-local variable.
