Bug ID: 485677
Summary: CLI always opens new windows as if called with --new
Classification: Applications
Product: kate
Version: 24.02.2
Platform: Microsoft Windows
OS: Microsoft Windows
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: application
Assignee: kwrite-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: benni.b...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
I configured TotalCommander to open files with Kate via:
C:\Users\benjamin.buch\AppData\Local\Programs\Kate\bin\kate.exe "%1"
I tested with the latest release and the nightly build from
- https://cdn.kde.org/ci-builds/utilities/kate/release-24.02/windows/
- https://cdn.kde.org/ci-builds/utilities/kate/master/windows/# (2024-04-08)
Whenever I open a file, a new window is opened with this file. Thats the
behavior that should be trigger if I use:
C:\Users\benjamin.buch\AppData\Local\Programs\Kate\bin\kate.exe --new "%1"
Withtout --new, the expected behavior is to open the file in an existing Kate
window.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
PowerShell:
PS C:\Users\benjamin.buch>
C:\Users\benjamin.buch\AppData\Local\Programs\Kate\bin\kate.exe
c:\Users\benjamin.buch\AppData\Local\Programs\Kate\bin\data\applications\org.kde.kate.desktop
PS C:\Users\benjamin.buch>
C:\Users\benjamin.buch\AppData\Local\Programs\Kate\bin\kate.exe
C:\Users\benjamin.buch\AppData\Local\Programs\Kate\bin\data\applications\org.kde.kwalletd6.desktop
OBSERVED RESULT
Two seperate Kate Windows.
EXPECTED RESULT
Both files open in the same Kate Window.
