I haven't tried that yet. I presume I'd only need to drag any changed files into the target to overwrite the ones already compressed there, so it would certainly be quicker. The problem is that for any new project using it's own files, I'm faced with the same thing over again.

I'll try making a change in an existing project and re-running, and I'll let you know.

Thanks
