#1936 Double-clicking on a .rvl or a .mky file in the Finder launches ravel, but does not load the file.

Minsky & Minsky GUI: v3.6.24
Ravel: unavailable
Angular: 20.3.18

macOS: 26.5.1 (25F80)

Double-clicking on a .rvl or a .mky file launches ravel, but does not load the file.

This seems to be the same or similar behaviour as #1875

Steps to reproduce:

Quit ravel
Locate a .mky or .rvl file in the Finder
Double-click on this file <- ravel will launch, but nothing loads.

It appears to be a timing thing when the open-file handler is registered If you double click when Minsky is already open, then it works as expected. But if Minsky is not already running, then the handler does not fire. But already the handler is in the main() routine, which is the first method to be called. This appears to be the situation as far back as 3.18.4, which is shortly after #1875 was closed. There are no notes in #1875 to indicate this peculiar behaviour.

I can confirm opening Ravel then double-clicking on a file works.
