Hello Daniel,

You can use the kstart wrapper command, e.g.

kstart --desktop 2 kate /usr/local/apache/conf/httpd.conf

No need to use '&' as you're returned to the prompt immediately. This leaves 
you on the current desktop. Use the --activate option as well if you want to 
switch to desktop 2 when you run the command. Use 'kstart --help' for other 
options.
