Re: [opensuse] kde and the kate editor

starts it I cannot pass a parm through konqueror.
So I get 30 kate windows on my desktop when all I want is one. Ideally
I'd like kate to open the file I've chosen in the instance of kate which
is already open ON THAT DESKTOP.

Has anyone figured this out?
Sorry if this is an inappropriate forum... well not all that sorry....

It's driving me nuts too. I also have an old 9.3 box and konqueror
reuses the same kate instance.

Alright - who screwed Kate?

Better yet, who can make her happy again?
