#38544: Kate cannot be launched from the command line -----------------------------+--------------------- Reporter: rob.edgerley@… | Owner: nicos@… Type: defect | Status: closed Priority: Normal | Milestone: Component: ports | Version: 2.1.3 Resolution: worksforme | Keywords: Port: kate | -----------------------------+--------------------- Comment (by rob.edgerley@…): Hi again, Indeed that works.The way I actually solved it, rather than adding yet another alias to the .profile file, was to add a logical link to {{{ /Applications/MacPorts/KDE4/kate.app/Contents/MacOS/kate }}} in the following location {{{ /opt/local/bin }}} I did this by navigating to: {{{ /opt/local/etc }}} and typing "as root", the following command: {{{ ln -s /Applications/MacPorts/KDE4/kate.app/Contents/MacOS/kate kate }}} Now simply typing: {{{ kate <file> & }}} does the trick. Hope this helps someone out there! -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/38544#comment:6> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
