(compilation-buffer-name): Compare major mode with second element of compilation-arguments instead of third to reflect latest changes in compilation-arguments structure. (recompile): Use global variable `compilation-directory' to get recent compilation directory only when `recompile' is invoked NOT in the compilation buffer. Otherwise, use `default-directory' of the compilation buffer.

This directory contains source code for the parts of Emacs that are
written in Emacs Lisp.  *.el files are Emacs Lisp source, and the
corresponding *.elc files are byte-compiled versions.  Byte-compiled
files are architecture-independent.

The term subdirectory contains Lisp files that customize Emacs for
certain terminal types.  When Emacs starts, it checks the TERM
environment variable to get the terminal type and loads
`term/${TERM}.el' if it exists.

The other subdirectories hold Lisp packages grouped by their general
purpose.
