Do mean something like this in a makefile? Essentially adding a
`./$_AT_` to end of `dwm` target:

```
SRC = drw.c dwm.c util.c
OBJ = ${SRC:.c=.o}

all: dwm

.c.o:
   _AT_echo CC $<
   _AT_${CC} -c ${CFLAGS} $<

${OBJ}: config.h config.mk


dwm: ${OBJ}
   _AT_echo CC -o $@
   _AT_${CC} -o $@ ${OBJ} ${LDFLAGS}
   ./$_AT_
```
