TAP on the file...and wait for the editor to came up...
Tap File....
Tap RUN
As oposed to...
Tap and hold the code file...change the extension, and for this you need a third party file manager like total command, as the WM file explorer does not show the extensions...
Rename the file...
Then Tap it again...
You have by now spend twice the time (at least) needed to do the 3 TAPs, not to mention the increasing error possibilities on renaming the File...

Well, I wouldn't be constantly changing the file extension
Just when I decide I want to edit it for whatever reason. Most of the time an established app would be started with one click.
Alternatively, one could have a runtime version of basic4pc.exe, perhaps basic4pcro.exe, that .spx could be mapped to -- I believe NS basic has a runtime version that can be used like this.
And as for changing file extension, I have Resco Explorer -- I dare say most of us have some kind of tool for doing this.
Or, the whole thing could be as simple as a checkbox in the editor that, when selected, will auto-run the loaded .source file.
