When I set the icon in the panel to --use nothing happened in
Konqueror. I got the same response as I did before, i.e. it opened a
new window.
I checked:
/home/keith/.kde3/share/apps/kicker/kate.desktop
and
/home/keith/.local/share/applications/kde-kate.desktop
kate.desktop had the --use option added but apparently Konqueror was
not using that to open Kate.
I checked kde-kate.desktop file and --use had not been added to it.
Since I had no clue what program would set --use in it, I set it by
hand.
After I did that, when I started a text file in Konqueror it reacted
as you described in your bug report.
I did a lot of testing of different CLI options in the
kde-kate.desktop file and most but not quite all would not work when
--use was used.
I tried Kstart in the kde-kate.desktop file and tested it with various
Kstart and Kate options and got the same results as above, most of the
options were ignored.
I tried starting Kate from a terminal, with various options, and had
similar responses as the above--many options quit working when -use
was used.

I assume
buttons = icons. Isn't English a wonderful
way to miscommunicate?
Yup. I have worked as a technical writer for more than two decades. Saying what you mean
is always a challenge. :)
I have not used krunner (at least deliberately),
I have
used kstart,
if you haven't you might want to check it out...
I just checked and (at least in my packaging system),
krunner is a
KDE4 app. I don't have any of that on my system so I
can't test it
But using a KDE4 app to start a Trinity binary might not
give the
expected result...
My fault. I always call the Alt-F2 widget "krunner." I suppose in the pre KDE4
days that is technically incorrect. I think in KDE3/TDE the wonderful name is "Run
Command." :)
