I have a simple mind, so I have an equally simple

Kate... when I click on a text file in konqueror, I want kate to open
with only one pane: the edit pane showing the contents of the file on
which I clicked.
I am sure it used to work exactly this way, but somehow it seems that my
configuration now is wrong: what happens now when kate opens is that
there is an extra pane on the left hand side, containing the names of
several recently-edited files. I suspect, given the amount of time that
kate is now taking to open, that kate is actually reading those files
into memory. I don't want any of that to happen: I want just a clean
view of the contents of the file I want to edit.
I'm sure it's a simple thing to fix, but I've wasted a ridiculous amount
of time trying to figure out, without success, how to change the
configuration so that kate doesn't occupy screen space with a list of
recently-edited files.
So if someone can give me the magic configuration item(s) to change, I
would very much appreciate it.

Hi Doc,
is it possible that the solution is: "Set as the default editor kwrite
instead of kate"?
Cheers
