Hi,
good point. Unfortunately the old system is gone and I do not remember what was the version of Geany. I have another installation of Geany on windows (installed about the same time as my old linux system) and that is version 1.26 (from 2015?) and it does behave as I have described - I can spawn multiple python scripts without destroying the previous ones. It uses default 'python "%f"' command for F5 which does not seem as doing any tricks to detach the spawned process. The new version of Geany is 1.33.
I have tried to install old version of Geany (1.24) on my new linux system to test it and it does kill spawned processes as well. On the other hand, new version of Geany on windows does not kill them. I am baffled. Probably I need to look outside of Geany.
Anyway it seems I will no get quick answers here :)
Well, the answer is that it is not intended to be possible, there is no code to manage more than one execute process. Maybe some old version(s) (1.26 is 5 years ago, who remembers ... well ok github does, but I'm not an archeologist :) had a bug that allowed it, and maybe the behaviour is different on windows, but that is not the intention.
Cheers Lex
Cheers, Jan

When asking questions its important to give versions, nobody knows what your old version was or what the new one is.
Geany has never been able to have more than one execute command at a time, but maybe you had modified the actual command Geany ran to detach the job and so return complete to Geany immediately.

Hi,
I would like to ask for help with following issue. I have recently switched to new Debian system and now I cannot run multiple python scripts from Geany (via F5) at the same time. On my previous system I could run many and the spawned terminals were open as long as the scripts were running (pressing F5 the second time seemingly detached the terminal from Geany and third press of F5 could start a new script in a new terminal). Now the spawned terminal closes immediately after pressing F5 second time (and it kills python even if it is not finished). strace shows that the terminal gets SIGTERM from Geany. Is that a new feature? I cannot find a way how to keep the terminal running.
