Well, as said I'm no guru, but so far I know, katerc is Kate only, katepartrc is also used e.g by Kile, Kwrite and any stuff which based on KTexteditor What, when, where is something saved/used I can't say ATM. Kate has some more "config" files, like for session management > Why .editorconfig takes precedence over ~/.config/katepartrc and > ~/.config/katerc? I think only when editorconfig is nearby the file you currently edit. So when some (Code) project have such in their tree it will used. So I understood the docs. > it makes kate gui config inapplicable Yes, I think so too > it may be created by some different app than kate thus users like me may be > unaware why the kate behavior suddenly changed Yeah, it should somehow clear be shown which config (file) is in use to avoid these kind of trouble.
