Why not just create an external tool to run the jar command? That's what I do. I've
attached my .xml file which you can drop into your idea\config\tools directory.
The tool will put the jar into a directory called \extensions. The name of the jar
will be <name of project>.jar
There's also a tool to jar up your source code. Which will create \extensions\<name
of project>Src.jar
