Description Gregor Mi 2023-12-26 12:44:27 UTC
It would be nice to have the user defined external tools (External Tools plugin)  available in the context menu of the Projects plugin's file tree.

Only suitable tools should be shown, which means...

* Tools that use file path variables like %{Document:FileName} or %{Document:Path}
* NOT tools that use cursor position variables like %{Document:Cursor:Line} or %{Document:Cursor:Column}
* NOT tools that have an Output setting which edits a document like "Insert at cursor position" or "Replace selected text"

What is the "Projects plugin's file tree"?

I would like to have an context-menu-entry for my external tools on every text document in Kate.

Would this be a different feature request?
