	p[Glyph's primary goal is to author complex documents like books or manuals. In order to do so, a Glyph project is required to keep everything organized and automated via a set of predefined conventions, exactly like Ruby on Rails or other similar frameworks do.]
	p[If you want to write a one-page article or a short draft, however, creating and managing Glyph projects can be an unnecessary burden. Luckily, you don't have to: you can use Glyph to compile single files containing Glyph code, by adding one parameter (or two if you want to specify a custom destination file) to the #>[compile], like this:]
	p[code[glyph compile source.glyph destination.htm]]
	p[This command will process a file called code[source.glyph] and produce an HTML file called code[destination.htm].]

This sort of "lite" mode comes with a few minor limitations: 
* Snippets &[only_defined_through] %>[snippet:].
* Project configuration settings &[only_defined_through] %>[config:].
* Custom macros &[only_defined_through] %>[macro:].
* Images &[referenced_with_path], and will not be copied anywhere when the output file is generated.
* Stylesheets &[referenced_with_path], or the name of an existing Glyph =>[#default_stylesheets|system stylesheet].
* The files included through the %>[include] &[referenced_with_path].
