filtering output from compile

[Theepa Somasundaram]

Hi,

 

I am completely new to elisp.

 

I have a Make file which contains a line like,

        gdb dummy.exe

I run the make file from Emacs in compile mode. I would like Emacs not to send the command to the shell and instead to execute the debugger within Emacs, as if I had started the debugger with a shotcut key.

 

Is this possible?

 

Thanks in advance, Theepa
