Hello,

Can someone explain to me why compile doesn't support asynchroneous
commands, and especially why it silently fails instead of displaying an
error message? I don't understand the mechanism involved here.

As a test, try M-x compile with "echo test > ~/test &" or "xclock &".

Thanks!

Antoine
