openeditor

#!/bin/bash

# opens a file in the editor of your choice
# good thing: it checks which editor is open and opens the file in that editor
# if no editor is found it defaults to a lightweight editor (like kwrite)

# the order in which to execute the commands
# breaks on success
# available are the following commands:
#
# kwrite_new_win
# quanta_new_win
# kate_new_win
#
# quanta_new_tab
# kate_new_tab
#
order=(
  quanta_new_tab
  kate_new_tab
