Apparently there are two types of plugins:

* katepart plugins
* kate plugins

The plugins available to kwrite are katepart plugins. The textfilter plugin, which allows sorting, is a kate plugin and not a katepart plugin.

But you must be using a different plugin because even after I figured out how to get the textfilter plugin enabled, I still don't have a Sort item in the menu. I have to select the text I want to sort, select Filter Text from the Tools menu, a dialog appears, I have to type "sort" and then the text sorts.

Would you look at your plugin list to see whether you can discern which plugins adds the menu item?

By the way, I don't know whether the sort plugin you are using is a katepart or kate plugin.
