SUMMARY
***

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  Type \begin{env_name}[parameters]
2. 
3. 

OBSERVED RESULT
There's an auto-complete for <env_name>, but none for the environment itself.

EXPECTED RESULT
\begin{env_name}[parameters] <Hit Enter>
should result in 
\end{environment} also.

I know that this feature is there in Kile. But I want to stick to Kate because it is too good as compared to Kile, especially the "Sessions"; and I work on many other non-TeX text files too;

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Comment 1 Christoph Cullmann 2023-12-18 19:08:44 UTC
Hi, I can see that this would be nice to have, but if no LaTeX LSP server provides such completion, I think you need to stick with Kile.
I can see the point to use plain Kate, I do that, too, but I don't think we will redo the Kile features.
Perhaps if Kile would be integrated as a plugin, but that is somethink the Kile devs would need to do.
