[ILUG] reattach kate to an existing session

Is it possible to get back to an instance of kate that was started in an 
ssh session, after losing the session?

I logged in with ssh -X and was using kate, and then it froze. A message 
on the terminal where I started SSH said that the connection had been 
terminated at the remote end. I suspect a pneumatic drill. There's one 
in the next room doing my head in atm.

Now, I logged in again, with ssh, and ps aux | grep -i kate shows an 
instance of kate that would have started about when I started mine.

Could this have the unsaved file I was working on?

And if so, is there any way of getting in to kate and saving it?

Thanks

Frank
