Version: (using Devel) Installed from: Compiled sources OS: Linux When starting kate with a file (e.g. from dolphin, konqueror, shell, ...) , it doesn't load a session, so none of the settings or plugins are restored. This is very irritating because it's like you "lose" you settings each time you open kate from other programs, and the only solution is close kate and re-open it with no file, and then re-open the file.
Yes, this is another problem with session initialization. Again, the default session settings should be in katerc. This is up for the meeting in april.
