I actually authored something for this to work with my workflow on lite-xl (I compile a mid-sized C++ codebase on the regular).

It's still not really ready for release, but it's here, in case you're at all interested: https://github.com/adamharrison/lite-xl-ide ; it's a build system and debugger integration.

The build tasks don't run in a terminal however; they move over to a build window at the bottom of the editor. The execution, however, by default, runs in whatever terminal you want to configure, so the actual program output does dump to an external terminal. Unfortunately, there is no truly integrated terminal as of yet.
