If  tsingtao.lsp  is the name of your file, for example, and it
resides in the current directory, try

(compile-file "tsingtao.lsp")

or

(compile-file "tsingtao")

If the file is in a subdirectory  work , try something like

(compile-file "work/tsingtao.lsp")

This should work in Common Lisp.  If you're using another dialect of Lisp,
how to compile depends very much on which version you're using; you'll
have to look in a manual.
