Using the above I extended it to byte compile any file
that's major mode is emacs lisp.

Please suggest improvements.

(defun autocompile nil
  "Automatically byte compile a file if it is in
emacs-lisp-mode."
  (interactive)
  (if (string= major-mode "emacs-lisp-mode")
      (progn
        (message (concat "Byte Compiling file: "
buffer-file-name))
        (byte-compile-file (buffer-file-name)))))

(add-hook 'after-save-hook 'autocompile)
