So, finally got it to work. Changed my shebang from #!/usr/bin python to #!/usr/bin/python (without space) I was still getting an error for the working directory so i moved %d/%f into the command then it worked.Thanks for your help.
I'm sorry, I'm drawing a blank (and google [linux bash %d] and man bash aren't helping) (probably a senior moment / minute / ??). What do %d and %f mean?
%d and %f are Geany specific symbols. They are well described in the geany manual: https://www.geany.org/manual/current/index.html
(And, for extra credit, is a space ever valid in a shebang?)
There is quite a nice article in Wikipedia on shebang - it defines the syntax of the shebang line. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shebang_(Unix)
I can appreciate your situation as you have just switched from Windows to Linux - I have done exactly that some years back. In my opinion one really does eventually have to get to grips with the command-line features.
The best sources for me are the gnu manuals obtained from https://www.gnu.org/. In particular, the bash and coreutils manuals are indispensable.
