           Summary: Python highlight mode suggestion
           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 3.2.0)
Installed from:    RedHat RPMs

The Kate syntax highlighting correctly colors a multi-line Python docstring in gray. But it colors single-line docstrings in red. It would be more consistent if all docstrings were colored in gray, regardless of whether they were single-line or multi-line.

Example of a single-line docstring:

def test_single():
    "Returns the sum of 10 and 20"
    return 10 + 20

Example of a multi-line docstring:

def test_double():
    """This is an overly long docstring for an overly redundant
    function that returns the sum of 10 and 20"""
    return 10 + 20

If you (Kate developers) decide this change is worth making, please note that docstrings are allowed in several places -- as outlined by the official Python PEP:
