Everything you need to know should be here,
:help quickfix
and especially here,
:help make_makeprg
If you already have a working Makefile, and you build your code from
the shell prompt by executing "make", then you should be able to
start vim in the directory where you execute "make" in the shell and
simply execute
:make
within vim. If that doesn't work, then tell us exactly what you
tried and exactly what the results were.
As for support for HP's aCC, there is a compiler plugin already for
that compiler, $VIMRUNTIME/compiler/hp_acc.vim. You can invoke the
settings in that file by executing
:compiler! hp_acc
Do that before you execute ":make". See
:help :compiler

Gary
