Currently the third section on the Build menu (Execute commands) allows only 
one shortcut for the first entry. It would be great, if shortcuts are also 
allowed for more than the first entry.
Use case:
I am programming in python and I often like to execute a python script inside 
an external terminal. Executing a python script in an external terminal will 
show all print statements immediately, and will allow me to work inside the 
python interpreter once the main program is finished (and accessing all by the 
main program loaded or created modules and libraries).
While developing the first entry on the "Execute commands" section inside the 
build menu is associated with executing main inside an external terminal.
For testing purposes I have associated the second line for running the current 
(test) script inside a terminal - but this works only through the menu and not 
with a shortcut.
The other two sections ("Independent commands" and "Python commands" (in my 
case)) do have more shortcuts - but cannot be used to start a script in an 
external terminal.
Using entries of the "Independent commands" section will execute the script - 
but without printing "print" statements immediately - they got all printed 
inside the "compiler" window after the main script stopped (and not during the 
runtime of the script) and will not give me a running python interpreter after 
the main script stopped.

Therefore - please allow more shortcuts as described 
Thanks a lot.
