Description Diederik van der Boor 2007-11-29 10:16:10 UTC
Version:           2.5.8 (using KDE 3.5.8 "release 21.2" , openSUSE )
Compiler:          Target: i586-suse-linux
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.22.12-0.1-default

I open multiple files from webdav:// and each time these open in a new kate instance. I've learned about "kate -u", but I find it a bit weird this is only a command line switch. In fact I only learned about this switch while browsing bug reports.

Instead, I'd really love to have a checkbox "open files in the same editor instance". This would make such powerful - and often requested feature - more usable!
