I think there is no consistent cross-platform behavior in this regard. While on MacOS this will open in the same Pd instance, Linux will open another Pd to open the file with (Windows too IIRC).
at least with the Debian packages, Pd will open the patch in an already running instance (if possible). (other distros might have the file-associations wrong; if you install Pd from source, there are not file-associations at all).
Do you mean the file associations in the File Manager? If not, is it possible for the user to make these file associations? For the File Manager, in Dolphin "pd" is the application associated with the file which is the one in ~/.local/share/applications (currently Pd-0.49-0test5) which I have installed from source.
on Windows, there is a bug-fix coming with Pd-0.49, so that patches opened via the file-associations will open in an already running instance as well.
very good news.
