Comment (by rob.edgerley@…):

 Hi again,

 Indeed that works.The way I actually solved it, rather than adding yet
 another alias to the .profile file, was to add a logical link to

 {{{
 /Applications/MacPorts/KDE4/kate.app/Contents/MacOS/kate
 }}}

 in the following location

 {{{
 /opt/local/bin
 }}}

 I did this by navigating to:

 {{{
 /opt/local/etc
 }}}

 and typing "as root", the following command:

 {{{
 ln -s /Applications/MacPorts/KDE4/kate.app/Contents/MacOS/kate kate
 }}}

 Now simply typing:

 {{{
 kate <file> &
 }}}

 does the trick.

 Hope this helps someone out there!
