Hi all,

I am using Geany 1.37 with Windows 11. I wish to build an html file from a markdown source file. In the Build > Set Build Commands dialog, I typed in the following command:

python -m markdown %f > %e.html

I'd guess that the command isn't run under a shell but rather directly. In that case I'd...

1) Look for an output argument, such as -o

python -m markdown -o %e.html %f

2) If that doesn't exist, try wrapping in a shell:

cmd.exe /c "my command"

May have to use /k or other trickery. Check with cmd /h.
