[Implemented] Compiler write output to temporary directory

Would it be possible for the compiler to write any intermediate files (and final exe's if no path specified) to the temporary directory rather than the PBCompiler directory? Perhaps if a command line option or preference was set?

It would mean I could take PureBasic to work on a CD and use it during my lunch hour without having to copy things onto the work computers.

it would also speed up things when using ramdisks...

Very fair, I would like to do it since a while but guess what ? It's still not done :oops:. It's not as fast to change as it appears, but I will try to do it for the next version.
