problem getting kate process number

I got a problem getting the kate process number.

 dcop kate KateDocumentManager activeDocumentNumber

returned an error: call failed

Therefore, I first had to get the kate process number and assign it to the variable $1

 dcop 'kate *' > $1

Then it worked! (I am using Kubuntu 5.10 and KDE 3.5.2)
