Well the "quickness" depends on the underlying code formatter but we try to be as quick as possible. So far if you wanted to do code formatting from within Kate, the only way to do that was to configure a tool in the External Tools plugin and then invoke it whenever you wanted to format the code. While this works it wasn't great for a few reasons. Firstly, you would loose undo history. Secondly, the buffer would jump and you would most likely loose your current position in the document. Thirdly, for every language you get a different tool and you need to remember the right tool to invoke on the right document type.</p><a href=https://kate-editor.org/post/2024/2024-05-13-kate-formatting-plugin/ class="d-block mt-2">Read More</a></div></div></div><a href=/post/ class="learn-more mt-3" style=font-weight:700>📢 View all news</a></div></section></main></div><footer id=kFooter class=footer><section id=kFooterIncome class=container><div id=kDonateForm><div class=center><h2 class="h5 mt-2 mb-3">Donate to KDE <a href=https://kde.org/community/donations/index.php#money target=_blank>Why Donate?</a></h2><form action=https://www.paypal.com/en_US/cgi-bin/webscr method=post onsubmit='return amount.value>=2||window.confirm(`Your donation is smaller than 2€.
