To be fair, Kate isn't just a text editor, it actually is an IDE. The text editor version would be kwrite, which would be horrible to program in.

Wow, you're right of course. I completely forgot kwrite still existed, tbh.

Kwrite doesnt really exist on its own anymore. Its a slimmed down gui for kate now.

Oh wow you're right, it's basically just kate without some of the toolbars now. Hadn't used plain kwrite in a while.
