Hi Nibaldo!

Thanks for the help.
Now it works. Great, now I can use 19.x.x :-) without a limitation.


May the Kate documentation should be updated with this information.
https://docs.kde.org/stable5/en/applications/katepart/highlight.html

Or is there somewhere a more accurate webpage of this docu existing?

Regards,

Philipp
