Kate Mac needs to use Mac keybinds, not Windows or Linux, or at least be editable.

Kate on Mac is using Linux/Windows keybindings, like F3 for Find Next, and on the Mac, it is Command-G, for find aGain. Find is correct, Command-F, but Find Next is not. So it seems that it’s a mixed bag.

I looked everywhere, and cannot find a place to edit or fix it. I even tried to record a macro, but then there’s no way to assign a key to the macro, so that was no work-around.

I use Kate on my Linux machines, and have been using it heavily on the Mac, but the wrong keybindings are really annoying.

I have contributed, and I have fixed other Kate issues, on the Mac, like file types, but since this isn’t a bug, they wanted it posted here.

This is for sure a bug. I have create an MR for this case here Fix FindNext shortcut on macos (!408) · Merge requests · Frameworks / KConfig · GitLab

Shortcuts are usually in Kate repo itself or sometimes they are in ktexteditor. Standard shortcuts are in kconfig repo.
