ide strips Pattern() from images

[Brian Parma]

at the start of one of my scripts stick some image patterns i use in several places in global variables:

var = Pattern("image.png")

I need the Pattern(), because I throw in .similar() in the find calls to get different tolerances.

When this is saved in the IDE, Pattern() is stripped and the code only has:

var = "image.png"

which causes exceptions next time I open sikuli and try to run (str does not have .similar())
