I hope your file has a better name than %f! Have you tried to type M-x  
compile RET? Did you see text appear in the echo-area? Now, could you  
try to type SPACE (the character, not the word) in echo-area/mini- 
buffer and than the start of your file's real name (not its path  
name)? Does, when pressing TAB, the file name complete? If so, then  
just press RET! If not, then you have to type some more or make a  
choice at some time...
