Description Kai Uwe Broulik 2015-12-20 21:07:44 UTC

When I try to launch kate with an argument for a file, it does not start. If it is already running, it also does nothing.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Quit all open Kate instances
2. Run kate ~/.xsession-errors (or any other file)
3.

Actual Results:  
Nothing happens

Expected Results:  
Kate launches with the file passd

It works with kwrite

I can not reproduce that :/
Could you tryout current kate.git master?
