Vu -

You shouldn't ever need to hand compile files, but you might want
to "include" them in your current program using something like:

@setarray_utils.pro ; Compiles file

In this case "setarray_utils.pro" is a collection of functions that
I want to group together because they have a common purpose, and I
don't necessarily want all it's routines cluttering up my directory
as separate files.

If you use this, you can easily compile all routines that are in another
file and then call them. Used this way, the routines you call don't
necessarily have to be in a file having the same name.
