Created attachment 145508 [details] Annoying error I uase Kate's LSP which is helpful for C++ development. However every time I open a bash file (such as my .bashrc), Kate's Output panel opens automatically and shows an error about how the bash LSP isn't installed. See attached screenshot. And sure, okay, that's true. I don't have it installed. However I don't really have any interest in doing so. As a result, it's annoying to see this error message (which isn't really an error from my perspective) every time I open a bash file. This is compounded by the fact that I typically keep borders hidden to save space, and the only way to hide this error is to click the "Output" button on the bottom border. So I need to show borders, hide the error message, and then hide borders again. All in all this is fairly minor, but nonetheless annoying.
Hmm, perhaps we should tune down the warning level for this. "info" sounds good for this case.
Would "Info" still make the output panel appear if it's currently not shown?
Only if you configure it to be. See Behavior settings, Output view visibility is controlled by the config set there. By default we only make the panel visible on errors and warnings I think.
Looks like by default it's errors only. So yeah, that would work!
I would prefer this to be a warning, at least. That would by default not trigger the output pane either. If Mark is okay with that, too, feel free to change that.
