"Build" and "Execute" actions are handled differently.

Build actions do not allow user input and have their output captured and 
analysed for errors/warnings and then displayed in the compiler tab of the 
message window as a clickable list.  Execute actions are executed in a terminal 
window (either the embedded one or a separate one) so the user can interact 
with it and output with terminal control sequences will work.

Just programming a build/execute command to build and run can only be one of 
those since Geany cannot separate the "build" part of a command from the "run" 
part of a command so you will lose some capability.

Thats why "somebody" needs to add a capability to select two separate parts of 
the "build and run".  Perhaps it could be as simple as selecting two build menu 
commands, but it still needs coding, and UI to set it.
