[Implemented] Compiler Feature : Check for Syntax

Hi everybody,

At the moment, while writing/testing a program, purebasic-users can :

. 'Compile/Run'
. 'Run'
. 'Compile with Debugger'
. 'Compile without Debugger'


It might be useful to add this item in the menu :

. 'Check Syntax'

This will call the compiler, in order to check the syntax of all lines in the current source.
But it won't run the generated executable.
When we are working on big project it can save some times.

But should it create the executable and not run it, or just check the syntax?
I'd like to see an option of just checking the syntax without making the exe,
and without including binaries and so on (since they don't need to be checked).

Yes that's also what i want (not creating the executable).
I had badly expressed myself.

Actually, you're the seventh person to agree, not the second. ;)
