From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

There is just one feature that Kate has that I really use a lot, but it is not on a convenient key binding, and that is the ability to filter the active text selection through a shell utility, or to capture the output of running a shell command. When I use Emacs, I use these commands a countless number of times every day, and they are both on default key bindings that are very easy to type.
I wish Kate would take this feature more seriously.
Kate is really a hidden gem. It’s so light weight and just gets out of the way. I’m now installing it everywhere—Linux, Mac, or Windows.
I hate that I can't copy things out of kate, it shows up blank on my clipbboard
That's interesting. I use wayland on my personal setup and xorg at work and I can copy paste flawlessly. Do you have klipper enabled?
idk what klipper is 🤷. if it is the fefault clipbosrd manager it is in my system tray yes
Yes, that's exactly what it is. Most of my problems with clipboard on plasma were due to a misconfigured clipboard manager. Does this happen only on Kate or other applications, too?
only kate
uh this is unfortunate, I can copy paste flawlessly on Wayland and I remember i could also on xorg a few months ago
