Version: 2.4 (using KDE 3.3.91 (beta1), compiled sources) Compiler: gcc version 3.3.3 (SuSE Linux) OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.5-7.104-default The new introduced kttsd plugin for Kate is somehow enabled per default. Using the Kate part in Quanta gives a new action and a new toolbar with an action to speak the text. I do not understand why this appears in Quanta. First in Kate it is an application plugin not an editor plugin. That means it is not configureable inside of Quanta, because the editor configuration of Quanta only allows to enable/disable the editor plugins. Second the feature depends on an entry in katerc but if I copy this entry to quantarc it is still not possible to disable it. If this plugin is meant for the Katepart it should be configureable together with the other plugins. And it should be disabled per default, because you can not rely on the availability of it. If I only install kdelibs and kdebase the icon is missing and the plugin does not work. Jens
This plugin is misplaced, it's in kdebase/kate/plugins but must be moved to kdelibs/kate/plugins, as it plugs into to katepart. It also does not use the katepart plugin system, it is a KPart plugin, and doesn't providea desktop file as it should. It seems to work with a kate ktts plugin, but it should probably work solely with katepart. I have added the last contributor of the plugin to the CC list for this BR, and I hereby ask to have the following actions taken: * move the katepart plugin to kdelibs/kate/plugins * make it a real katepart plugin, so that it can be enabled in the katepart configuration * remove the katektts plugin * I suggest that this is assigned to the accessability team, allthough I will be happy to help with kate related issues. You can get help from kate developers if you join the #kate channel at the freenode irc network if desired.
The KDE Text-to-Speech plugins for Kate have been moved from kdebase/kate/plugins/ktts kdebase/kate/plugins/katepartktts to kdeaccessibility/kttsd/app-plugins/kate This move consolidates two plugins to one and removes the build dependencies on kdebase. To remove cruft from your system, everyone else should either "make uninstall" in the directories above (before you cvs up) or delete the following files: $KDEDIR/libs/kde3/libkatepartkttsdplugin.* $KDEDIR/apps/katepart/kpartplugins/katepartkttsd.rc $KDEDIR/libs/kde3/libkatekttsdplugin.* $KDEDIR/share/services/katekttsd.desktop Sorry for the hassle.
