Thoughts? > Hi David, Kate's syntax files are downloaded from our source code repository and it has been like that for 5 or 6 years now. - From time to time we update those files. We used to do that often when KAte 2.5 syntax files were still available. Now we need more work on those files. Probably the next update will be for R14.1.0 release. If you or any user wants to update the existing files and propose a patch for any update, feel free to do so and we will be happy to integrate that.
