Slavek, all
Kate-editor.org finally pulled the plug on allowing updates to the kate syntax files. Not
just for KDE3, but for
Frameworks5 as well. While the change was over a year ago, I don't think the link
went down until sometime later.
So basically we are left with a config dialog with a [Download] button that no longer
does anything anymore. It
seems there needs to be a similar repository setup and a change made to the URL kate
uses. While with Frameworks 5,
each new version will come with the new syntax files, for TDE/KDE3 there will need to be
some repository that makes
updates available when things change (like the current html/css file needs help)
The files are relatively small (40k, etc..), and the number that change on an annual
basis is small, so there
shouldn't be much bandwidth required to support it at all -- the reality of it is
very few ever update the syntax
files until -- well something doesn't work any more.
I'm open to suggestions. I know we looked a difference in the javascript file ~ 2
years ago between the TDE version
and openSUSE KDE3 version, and since that time
kate-editor.org pulled the plug.
I would probably lean toward hooking the [Download] URL button to a git repository that
could provide a more or
less seamless URL change for where kate looks for the updates? Thoughts?
Hi David,
Kate's syntax files are downloaded from our source code repository and it has been
like that for 5 or 6 years now.
- From time to time we update those files. We used to do that often when KAte 2.5 syntax
files were still available. Now
we need more work on those files. Probably the next update will be for R14.1.0 release.
If you or any user wants to update the existing files and propose a patch for any update,
feel free to do so and we
will be happy to integrate that.
Cheers
Michele
