It's important to do make while inside Emacs, there are
benefits to working that way.
Bind some keys to invoke the compiler and find errors, I do:
(define-key global-map [(f1)] 'compile)
(define-key global-map [(f2)] 'next-error)
(define-key global-map [(S-f2)] 'previous-error)

In the fvwm source directory I keep a file for Emacs that automatically
enforces fvwm project rules.
The name of the file is .dir-locals.el and it's contents:
((nil . ((indent-tabs-mode . t)
(fill-column . 80)))
(c-mode . ((c-basic-offset . 8)
(c-indent-level . 8)
(indent-tabs-mode . t))))
Emacs reads .dir-locals.el and applies it's rules in all
sub-directories.
