example of a custom script for Kate

[Dominik Haumann]

You have to update Kate and KTextEditor as well, since the External Tools
plugin uses new API that was added later.

I suggest you use the AppImage or similar instead, e.g.:
https://binary-factory.kde.org/job/Kate_Release_appimage/

Best regards
Dominik
