<p><a href="https://github.com/dr446" class="user-mention">@dr446</a> you didn't say which command you used.</p>

<p>What language are you trying to build?  The fact that there are no filetype commands says the file you have open is not a type recognised by Geany.</p>

<p>If you were running <code>Make</code> then do you have a makefile?</p>
