I found a cool utility that will auto scroll the compilation window as the
output grows.  (Since I started using Ant/JUnit with JDE, the output to my
*compilation* window has grown quite a bit and I got tired of C-x o, C-v or
C-M-v to see if my tests passed.)

It's part of the tiny-tools collection on source forge
(http://sourceforge.net/projects/tiny-tools).  It's a 1.8Meg zip (!) but you
just need a small subset:

tinylib-ad.el
tinylib.el
tinyliba.el
tinylibb.el
tinylibm.el
tinyscroll.el

In .emacs put (require 'tinylib) and (require 'tinyscroll).  (This is a bit
different than what the documentation says.)  Your compilation buffer will
now automatically scroll.  Hope this is useful ...
