[Bug 1282399] [NEW] [request] IDE: want an option to save/open plain script file (.py, .rb, ...)

 

Public bug reported:

*** BE AWARE ***
using this option will strip any automatic support for image/screenshot handling. You are fully responsible for that yourself 
(using ImagePath will help)

-------------------------------------------------------------------

As we know, Sikuli IDE stores the codes and the screenshots under the same sikuli source folder(*.sikuli).
Besides, SIkuli IDE can only open the *.sikuli folders.
Can we add a setting for changing the storing method?

The reason is a little long:

 - In my Automation Project, we use Eclipse to develop.

 - But the guys who use the Automation Project to test don't want to use
Eclipse. Another IDE which is eaiser to configure would be much suitable
for them.

 - Now I let them to use Windows Command file to run the Automation
Project (*.cmd file calls *.py file), then the console is the windows
command line.

 - However, there is an uncomfortable thing. There is no way to stop the
running like what we do in IDE. We can only kill the "cmd.exe" process.
In Eclipse, we can use Ctrl+Alt+F9 to stop. In Sikuli IDE, we can use
Alt+Shift+C.

 - I want to use Sikuli IDE instead. Because it's easier to configure
than Eclipse and it can stop the running using Alt+Shift+C.

 - However, as what I said in
https://answers.launchpad.net/sikuli/+question/232998 , we take care of
all the screenshots in another place, and the importing between modules
can't work if there is a *.sikuli folder.

 - I am wondering, in the next release of Sikuli, can we add a new
setting for changing storing method? By default this setting is OFF.
When this setting is on(checkbox is checked) in the IDE settings, Sikuli
will not use *.sikuli folder, and will not take care of the screenshots,
and can open *.py files.

Excuse me, is this possible?
