Bug ID: 447688
Summary: Kate improvement and usability
Product: kate
Version: 21.12.0
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: kwrite-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: med.medin.2...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
I daily use Kate to edit big and small files, so as result I found that it's
lacking many basic functions for text editing and have big issues with its user
interface.
Some of the basic functions that are must and used by everyone are : reverse
sort lines, delete duplicated lines, delete empty lines, shuffle lines, remove
leading/trailing white spaces, rectangular (multiple lines) inserting and
deleting, indent (shift right/left) lines, format selected lines or whole text,
word count,... These functions are important because they are the most used by
users and sometimes I'm forced to open the same file with another editor to
complete a simple task then return to Kate.
The second issue is that some important functions like
"Tools>Script>Editing>Sort..." are buried deep in many enclosed sub menus,
while they represent important functions used by users, some of the them should
be moved to Edit menu to make easy to find and also to provide permanent
support for them like a part of the editor and not as random extra scripts.
