Ah, thanks for the idea. SimpleIPC should be able to do the trick - similar to how apps communicate to a DebugServer (using dbugintf and SimpleIPC units). First instance will search for a known IPC server, if none exist, start the Simple IPC server. Second instance will first see if a existing IPC server exists, and if so, send the open command to it, then quit. That should work in a cross-platform way too.
