Bug Description

*** 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?

alt-shift-c will be useable too, when running scripts from command line in version1.1.0

Storing/opening the plain script files is now planned for 1.2.0
