This is not exactly the answer you were looking for, but is kinda neat,
anyway. If you're running emacs in a windowing system, one thing I like
to do is have a new frame pop up with the run output. Since the buffer
is called "*Main*" by default, I use the following:
(setq special-display-buffer-names
'("*Main*"))
