Re: Kate feature request

Hi,

There is the Build & Run plugin that should be able to do what you want

Either you run the command in the "build" command and have only terminal=20
output, or you can run the command in the "run command" and the command wil=
l=20
be run in a terminal tab (in the build tool-view)

 And then there is the "Tools -> Run Current Document" that tries to execut=
e=20
the current document in the terminal

Hope that helps :)
