This is great! The file associations will help a lot. It would be
good if you could use the same icon, it is in SVN and is used for Mac
OS X files, and the app icon for all platforms.
As for opening in the same instance, Mac OS X handles that
autmoatically, but on Windows and GNU/Linux, Pd needs to be modified
to support that. There has been some discussion about how to do it.
I think the best bet would be to look how other apps like Firefox,
etc handle this.

Howdy again,
I'm working on integrating pd-extended into the Ubuntu desktop and
have a mime type and associated patch icon setup. You can double click it to open it in pd natively.The only problem is I'm trying to figure out a way to open a patch
in a running instance of pd. Basically, it would be great to double click a patch file and have it open in
my already running pd thus saving me from going back and forth in the open dialog which is annoying.I've looked at pdsend but from what I've seen in manuals/pd-msg
pdsend only works if you have a netreceive running in a patch. Is there anyway to send commands to the pd-gui
directly ala "open in a new tab" from a filebrowser in firefox?Next up would be to get that tkdnd stuff working ...
