Alas, this only switched Kate to the Qt open dialog as opposed to the KDE one. My understanding is that the KDE open dialog is simply unsupported / not available under Windows. Please let me know if I am wrong. Additionally, running kate.exe sftp://user@host/some/file/path resulted in the following error message: Unable to create io-slave. Unknown protocol 'sftp'. Again, let me know if I missed something (maybe I should have installed a common package?). Assuming I did not miss anything: well, needless to say, this is underwhelming: 7 years later, the KDE for Windows project still feels like a useless portability proof-of-concept. I change this report to "REPORTED"; I would advise to double-check the current status of the "bring KIO/slaves to Windows" idea and adjust this report accordingly (e.g. RESOLVED/INTENTIONAL). Thanks for your time. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
