Example of what I want to achieve. Say I have gEdit (Gnome editor) open

someotherfile.txt' [or double click a text file in Nautilus], it doesn't
start a new instance of gedit, the existing instance opens the new file
- gedit supports multiple opened files in a tabbed view.
How do they accomplish this? I would like to implement something like
that for fpGUI, and it must work under all fpGUI supported "desktop"
platforms.
notepad++ does this also... or you can configure it to open multiple times... i
don't know if you can pick out how notepad++ is doing this from their code... i
don't know...
http://sourceforge.net/projects/notepad-plus/
this is one case where i like the single process with multiple tabs but i can't
stand it in my browser(s)...
