# Editor Component Extensions

These plugins are available to any program using the &kate; Editor Component. To learn how to enable, disable, or configure them, see pref-plugins.

AutoBrace

- The autobrace plugin supersedes the &kappname; internal Auto Brackets feature. It automatically inserts a closing brace } at the beginning of the next line after ending a line with an opening one { and pressing the &Enter; key.

Exporter

- This command allows you to export the current document with all highlighting information into a HTML document using File Export as HTML. Additionally you can use Edit Copy as HTML to copy the currently selected text as HTML to the system clipboard.

Highlight Selection

- Highlights all words that match the currently selected text.

IconInserter

- The icon inserter plugin is only of use for &kde; developers: It adds an item Insert KIcon-Code into the context menu of the editor. If activated, the &kde;'s icon chooser opens (showing application icons, action icons &etc;..). If you click on it, the file name without file extension will be inserted as text. Useful only for setting icons via &kde;'s framework through the KIcon() class.

Insert File

- This plugin allows you to insert any readable file at the cursor position. If enabled, the Tools menu has an additional menu item Insert File.
