I like the syntax colouring in Kate. It would be, however, convenient,
if
Kate could recognize by itself, how to choose syntax highlighting, when
opening a file.

Emacs for example, deduces the highlight mode by inspecting the first
line.
If it contains a certain string (easily embeddable inside a comment),
such
as -*- bash -*-, emacs uses syntax highlighting for bash. If there is no
such
string, but a #! line, it uses this information to turn on syntax
highlighting.

I don't know whether this is possible with Kate too. 

I'm using Kate 2.1 on RedHat 3.1.3.
