+1, sounds useful.

why?
in a project are many files with include, so you can't compile it alone.

And with compiler targets you can add some other files as main codes, to compile it "alone".

I enjoy this 'feature' now by NOT using projects. :wink:

I have a project consisting of 1 (One) Include File (~10.000 lines) for a library and 180 examples (all together ~23.500 LOC).
I can compile and execute all examples with a button press, but sometimes it would be nice to only compile
the current example file I am working on. If I press F5, always all 180 examples compile.
Should I make 180 targets now, for compiling/testing one out of 180 examples? I don't have time to do that,
so I understand this feature request. Compile only currently opened file of a big project (in my case, one of the 180 example files,
which also compile stand-alone, because every example contains "XInclude "xyz.pbi").

Would be nice, +1.
