Hey, nice to hear of you. I think you won't have to modify anything, at least not in terms of IPC... I was reluctant to keep pipes at first, but now I think I'll go along with Steve's implementation. Besides, I'm more or less done implementing the single instance code using director messages through the new pipe system. >Oh-- and as far as window focus goes, it would be nice to be able to >request for scite to front itself.

That's the next thing on my todo list, and I already have some pointers. Basically we need to call gtk_window_present() but there is some stuff with timestamps - to ensure the window gets fronted unless it's annoying for the user - that I've got to research. What would the message be called? I'd propose "focus:"... any other or better ideas?
