One of my favorite advantages (when programming) is the ability to edit several dozen files simultaneously. Then I press the keystrke bound to "make" and it saves all unsaved files, optionally makes numbered backups, runs "make -k", and shows you ALL of the compile errors/warnings. Then press the Control-X ` key and emacs scans the make output, opens the file if necessary, and moves the cursor to the line with the error/warning. Fix that error, hit the keystroke again, and it goes to the NEXT error. Repeat untill all of the errors/warnings are fixed. Then press the "Make" function again. This really helps when you are fixing bugs in a dozen files. Alas, the syntax of Perl's error messages isn't regular enough for this to work I guess. I really miss this when I work with Perl.
