Request: To Compile Identical Script for PC or Mobile

The overall problem occurs when a script is developed on PC and ported to Android - it's difficult to maintain updates in the PC "prime" file as I make adjustments to the Android version based on testing. Script management would be much easier there was a method to only compile certain code segments if a specific edit mode was enabled.

This idea was suggested by the form used in one of my current scripts. I'm not really sure how a solution might work or look - I didn't want to throw out a problem without offering any kind of solution. This illustrates the idea nicely, and looks pretty similar to the code I'm currently work with.

Idea 1:

{SA
// compile commands only if edit mode is SA
} 
{SA_mobile
// compile commands only if edit mode is SA_mobile
}

A snippet from a project to reset radar blips to standard markers only. Currently I need to move the end brackets around to port the script::

{SA}
0ADF: add_dynamic_GXT_entry "BLIPS1" text "Active blips found: ~y~~1~~s~ of ~y~~1~~s~"
0ADF: add_dynamic_GXT_entry "BLIPS2" text "Stray destination blips removed: ~y~~1~~s~~n~Hidden blips removed: ~y~~1~~s~"
0ADF: add_dynamic_GXT_entry "BLIPS3" text "Unknown blips removed: ~y~~1~~s~~n~Current blips active: ~y~~1~~s~ of ~y~~1~~s~"
0ADF: add_dynamic_GXT_entry "BLIPVAR" text "~r~Abnormal VarSpace!~s~"
0ADF: add_dynamic_GXT_entry "BLIPOM0" text "~r~Player on Mission!~n~~s~Current blips active: ~y~~1~~s~ of ~y~~1~~s~"
0ADF: add_dynamic_GXT_entry "BLIPYAY" text "~r~Yay Courier Active!~n~~s~Current blips active: ~y~~1~~s~ of ~y~~1~~s~"
