Description

Hi all,

After downloading kate, I was expecting to be able to launch the application by simply writing 'kate' into the terminal. However, this turns out not to be the case. Ive made sure to do all of the following:

sudo chown -R $USER ~/Library/Preferences/KDE
sudo launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchDaemons/org.freedesktop.dbus-system.plist
launchctl load -w /Library/LaunchAgents/org.freedesktop.dbus-session.plist

but alas, no joy. Any ideas here?

Furthermore: as a workaround I made an alias in my .bash_profile as follows:

alias kate='open -a kate'

which kind of works, but it's quite odd. If I then type into the terminal....

kate <file_i_want_to_open_and_edit>

....then kate launches, but not with the file I specified. Instead, an untitled blank file.

Any suggestions how I might go about solving this problem will be greatly appreciated.
