Description Afief Halumi 2017-01-26 19:17:28 UTC
Hi,

Coming from Windows I used to use Notepad++ as a kind of scratchboard for taking notes on various tasks, bug investigations and other things that needed to be kept in check. OF course on Windows a machine often needs to be restarted so it was a great feature that Notepad not only would remember the list of open files from the last session, but also remember edits to files and unsaved files.

Linux needs to be rebooted much less often, but every once in a while the system doesn't wake up from suspend or other bugs cause me to restart, unfortunately in such scenarios there is no way (that I know of) to keep all my Kate files/changes except by saving every one of them before putting the machine to suspend.

I would greatly appreciate it if an option could be added to Kate that enables it to save changes to a different location and display the session with the changes the way it was left when next opened.

Thanks.
