   Does anyone have any lisp code which implements both grab-file-name and/or
   file-completetion when doing M-x compile?

   Basically, if I am in Buffer foo.c and hit M-x compile and in my startup
   file I have:

   (setq compile-command "gcc ")

   Then I want to see:

   Compile command: gcc foo.c

   Anyone have any suggestions or pointers?

If you look in the elisp archives on tut.cis.ohio-state.edu (in
~/pub/gnu/emacs/elisp-archive), you will find (if nothing else), a
small package which I wrote which will determine the command line to
use.  It does not prompt the user, and it does not (obviously) allow
filename completion, but it will take the filename from the buffer,
and (an optional) comment from the code and use those things to make
up the command line... then it runs it with compile...
