I use the usual build system for Python with CTRL + B, and the results are displayed in the bottom “build panel” :
I’d like to have a second build system for Python with keyboard shortcut F5, that would open a new terminal and run the Python script there :
How is it possible to add such a second build method for the same extension (.py) ?
I don’t think you can do it with the build system, because of the way it works.
However, it should be trivial to implement as a plugin. Simply open a new shell process with a certain command that interpolates the file name/path.

I tried Preferences > Key bindings - User and thought I could add a keyboard shortcut :
{ "keys": "f5"], "command": "python", "args": { ?? }}But I’m currently unsuccessful.
Can you give some details about how to implement it as a plugin? (you said it’s trivial)
Save the following as “python_run.py” in your “Packages/User” folder
[code]import sublime
import sublime_plugin
import os
class PythonRunCommand(sublime_plugin.WindowCommand):
def run(self):
command = ‘python {} && pause’.format(
sublime.active_window().active_view().file_name()
)
os.system(command)
[/code]
set a key binding
{
"keys": "f2"],
"command": "python_run"
}
and here we go:
Thanks a lot!
Working with:
[quote]import sublime
import sublime_plugin
import os
class PythonRunCommand(sublime_plugin.WindowCommand):
def run(self):
os.system(’“C:\Python27\python.exe” %s’ % sublime.active_window().active_view().file_name())
[/quote]
Last thing:
The running terminal (containing Python process) seems to be “attached” to Sublime, i.e. while the Python script is running in the outside terminal, Sublime is non-responding. 
How to make the process independant from Sublime?
Solved with
[code]import sublime
import sublime_plugin
import subprocess
class PythonRunCommand(sublime_plugin.WindowCommand):
def run(self):
command = ‘cmd /k “C:\Python27\python.exe” %s’ % sublime.active_window().active_view().file_name()
subprocess.Popen(command)
[/code]
Since it seems you are running windows, check this plugin out:
https://github.com/Twizzledrizzle/Send-to-Shell
(not available in the package control currently)
You can send the selected text to a running IPython terminal, running in whatever shell you use most.
is it possible to do the same but on Linux(xubuntu)???
obviously the code as it is wont work on Linux but can it be edited to work on linux?
is it possible for that code to be edited in such way that it could work on Linux???
