           Summary: new blank documents are unnecessarily opened when
                    closing a blank document
           Product: kate
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Mandrake RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kwrite-devel@kde.org
        ReportedBy: kde@holovaty.com


Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.1)
Installed from:    Mandrake RPMs
OS:          Linux

This bug is not horrendous, but it leads to an unintuitive user experience in Kate.

Simply put, when you close a blank "Untitled 1" document, it gets renamed to the "Untitled 2", \
and so on -- even when there are no other untitled documents open in the workspace.


How to reproduce:

1. Open Kate with no documents in the workspace (except for the default "Untitled 1").

2. Close this "Untitled 1" document.

3. Note that the resulting blank document is now called "Untitled 2".

4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 many times (e.g., by holding down (CTRL-W), and note that the blank \
document keeps getting renamed. "Untitled 85", "Untitled 86", etc. After a while this becomes \
comical.


Expected behavior:

The resulting blank document (after step 2) *should* still be called "Untitled 1", because at \
this point there is only one blank document open in the Kate workspace. This document is no \
different than the first "Untitled" document; therefore it should not be renamed "2".
