Scratch Cleanup

there should be an option in Scratch for a cleanup option, preforms a general cleanup of the project.
ex: clean up scripts, remove unused variables (or maybe give a warning about unused variables), remove usused broadcast names, remove unused sounds, unseen pictures, save the project

Re: Scratch Cleanup

Scratch actually automatically removed unused broadcast messages (unless you have a stray broadcast block somewhere where the message is still in use). You can also right-click a project to clean-up the scripts (though that is a manual process)

I wouldn't mind having a better cleanup for unused variables, but I don't think choosing to remove unused sounds or unused pictures are good idea - some people have unused sounds and unused pictures in their projects on purpose (usually as a way to share resources), and a general clean sweep would be problematic in those areas.

Maybe an option for that, because sometimes I am so confused that I really do not know what I am doing XD
