Babel should have a "run" command that works like the following:

babel run should run the first defined executable in the foo.babel file
babel run exename should run the executable called "exename" after building
babel run alias should run the executable that is bound to an alias. For example if you have an executable called "superlongsoftwarenamethatistoomuchtotype-server" you could define an alias "server" and do babel run server

That would be super useful!

You can achieve this with the new NimScript support. Also the new c command does pretty much what you want: nimble c -r modulename.
