make a .replit file and then you can put any run command in it
for example in your .replit file:
run = "python myfile.py"

will this work if i make them files in one program?

im trying something similar (avoiding an annoying cyclic import) and i added it to the .replit and it still doesn't run the thing. could it be startCommand that starts those files? im basically trying to run flask while also running a command-line type of program

ok i found the solution to my problem: run the flask on another thread

create a new file with (name).py
write your code in it
go to main
import (name)
use functions in file : (name).(function)(parameters)

Say you have a file called 'file2.py'. In your main.py file, type the line:
import file2

This runs the entire file as if it were a part of your main one, so any variables or functions in file2 will still be able to be referenced within main.py.

Perfect. Works great.

Simple, from shell type
python filename.py
If your file is folder use
python folder/filename.py

Can anyone help me with this now? i have tried every solution and they (no longer) work.

Make sure the file you dont want to run isnt in a folder cuz then it doesnt work and also dont include the .py at the end
