Geany - How to execute code in terminal pane instead of external terminal


I really like Geany for writing Python code. When I click F5, it opens system's default terminal window and executes the code there.

There is also a terminal inside Geany window, the bottom pane and the last tab. What I want is the code to be executed there. Is it possible?

Geany with terminal pane


Solution

  • After fiddling with the options, I found the way:

    1. Right-click on terminal area and select "Preferences". It opens the general preferences window with Terminal tab opened.

    2. There is an option: "Execute programs in the VTE". Checking this option does what I want.
