           Summary: syntax-highlighting download dialog should show which
                    files are updated
           Product: kate
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: RedHat RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kwrite-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: kde holovaty com


Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.2.2)
Installed from:    RedHat RPMs

Presently, when I click Settings | Configure Kate | Highlighting | "Download...", a "Highlight Download" dialog box shows up, listing each syntax-highlighting package available, the current version installed, and the latest available version. That's useful information, but it is difficult to see which packages have updated versions available without having to at each line one at a time and comparing the "Installed" to "Latest" version.

The interface would be improved if upgradable packages were offset somehow -- in bolded text, for instance. Or perhaps the packages that already *are* in the latest version should be grayed-out.

Another idea, clearly trickier to implement, is to have an "upgrade all" button, which, when pressed, would download and install all the out-of-date and new syntax-highlighting packages. I suspect a full upgrade is the most common task related to users' management of these packages, so the interface would benefit a great deal from such a feature.
