Hi,

Any plans to retrofit Kate-trinity with hlSelection (first introduced in Qt4 I believe) ?

Most modern (Geany and other Scintilla-based) programmer editors have this feature which highlights every occurrence in the text of a word being double-clicked.

Thanks, Rob ==========

Hi Rob, that is indeed a nice to have feature. Realistically I can't tell you if or when we will do that simply because there is so much to do that it is difficult to accept/commit all user requests. But if you feel adventurous and want to give it a try, we will be happy to help with comments and code review on TGW. That is probably the best we can do atm.

Cheers Michele
