Compile And Run in emacs

[Aytug]

So I have installed dmd, gdc, emacs and d-mode.el on my Debian
machine.

I can compile the program fine with M-compile. The problem starts
after that.

I cannot run the output file properly from within emacs. Either
there is a way and I cannot find it, or there really is no way.

What I try instead:
1. Write the sourcecode.
2. M-compile.
3. Launch a separate terminal, and run the executable from there.
Or,
3. Launch a shell in emacs, and use that. Which sucks.

What am I doing wrong? Isn't there a "compile&run" option? And
one more thing, is there maybe a C-* alternative to M-compile
since it takes time to type that everytime?
