geany version: 1.32
ubuntu version: 18.04

Lately I've been running my machine until it shuts off from a drained battery.

Today I noticed that when I run python programs using the toolbar execute 
button, the icon
does not change back to a gear from the circle-slash when the program finishes.

The practical effect of this is you have to click the button again to get the 
gear icon, but the
terminal closes instead of remaining open.  This is very inconvenient since it 
makes it impossible to compare outputs from two different versions side by side.

**Workaround**

I solved the problem by opening the "set build commands" dialog and changing 
the execute command to something that throws an error, e.g. python "%p%f" (no 
'/' between), running something, and then changing the execute command back to 
its original value. (python "%f")

Evidently, geany stores some state that is not reset owing to the crash, and in 
some cases is not sanitized on startup.
