Bug ID: 470708 Summary: Kate "Intricate" Default Setting Breaks Formatting of Files (Formatting Text Behind Users Back Without Consent). Classification: Applications Product: kate Version: 23.04.1 Platform: Archlinux OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: sessions Assignee: kwrite-bugs-n...@kde.org Reporter: kdelo...@mozej.com Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY *** Saving PROPERLY FORMATTED sha256sum/sha512sum in Kate breaks the formatting of this sha text file. User properly formats the file, but Kate formats the file on its own while saving without user consent. *** STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Create properly formattted sha512sum of a file in Kate 2. Save it as xxxx.sha256 3. $ sha256sum -c xxx.sha256 OBSERVED RESULT Fail to run sha256sum -c xxx.sha256, despite user proper input in Kate. Frustrating users to no end, who wouldn't figure why their properly formatted checksum fail, despite them putting everything correctly. User will assume Kate is broken. EXPECTED RESULT DO NOT ADD EXTRA LINE at the end of the text if the user did not wished so. DO NOT FORMAT THE TEXT BEHIND USERS BACK. REMOVE EXTREMELY HARD TO FIGURE OUT/DISCOVER/DEEPLY HIDDEN IN SETTINGS: "Append newline at the end of file on save".
