Running different programmes

I know that the microcontroller runs the last program compiled onto it but is there a way to easily run previously written programmes already on the mbed without taking them off and putting them on again/re-compiling them?

The mbed (ie magic chip) checks the date/timestamp. When it finds a newer bin file than the current one it will load the lastest file. I guess some sort of 'touch' command should work to update an older file.
