Re: Setting 'make -jN' in makeprg

My solution is to build with -j16, then build again with -j1 and watch
one error message. With that solution in mind you understand soon that
setting -j option in .vimrc is broken because you need *two* commands:
1) compile till hitting any error
2) compile with -j1 to find that one error without confusing error
messages

Its not perfect but fastest in many cases.

If you have a look at vim-addon-actions you can bind make commands to
keys multiple times easily - and while doing so add -jX options.

Using vim-addon-local-vimrc for each project is another easy solution:
define those two mappings once and continue working
