I am currently using the Rational VADS compiler
and trying to get EMACS to work with it. I do not
have the first clue where to start though. 
My main desire is to do the following:

We have a directory structure as follows;

Project
   Sub-module
      Edited Files
      Source Files

The ideology is that a file is edited in the
Edited Files directory and then moved into the
Source Files directory for compilation. A makefile
exists in the Sub-module directory in order to
make the sub-module (and one in the Project
directory to do the entire project). I would like
to be able to automatically copy files from the
edited files directory into the source files
directory, move up a directory and run the make
command from there.

I currently do this via an xterm away from emacs.
I would like to be able to do it from within
Emacs, even down to a basic compilation of a
single file level.

I have had a lot of experience using Emacs, but
not much in customizing it!


Any help will be greatly appreciated.
