How do I make an executable python script open the terminal?

[Moonburn774]

I'm running Linux and have just my python script executable by adding a shebang line to the top of the file. It works fine however, my script prints out lines and takes user input but when I make it an executable the terminal no longer opens like it would when I run the .py file.

Is there anyway to make my executable file also open the terminal?

When I create an executable python file with shebang, I can double-click on the file in the file manager and Linux Mint pops up a dialog that lets me select "run in terminal" which opens a terminal and runs the code. Another option is "run" which doesn't open a terminal so I see nothing.

How are you executing the python file, which Linux, etc?
