When an instance of Dev C++ is already open, if a user tries to open more files by selecting them and pressing return in windows, Dev C++ opens all those files in different instances instead of opening them as tabs in the already opened instance. Please fix this.
Added to TODO list.
Fixed in 5.10.
I reopened the ticket since the new behaviour is more worse than the old in my opinion.
It's fine to have .cpp and .hpp opened in an existing environment (although I'd never need that behaviour), but I must be able to have several projects opened parallely.
The reason I never used C::B in the past is, that you can only have one program instances at once. (btw dev-cpp is better anyway in my opinion)
Now, I am working at ~10 Dev-cpp projects at once at some time. Should I reopen and close the whole day? If someone is wondering - I have an application that uses some self-written libraries. If I need to change something in the library I would have to close the other project first as it is with 5.10+
Or think of client/server applications or dll/exe setups. There are many situations in which I want to be able to have several dev-cpp instances opened at once.
Please re-fix this behaviour or make it an optional flag in the dev-cpp settings.
Until then I am forced to use Dev cpp 5.9
thanks in advance

edit: I want to emphasize that I want to have complete independent dev-cpp instances - one instance for one project - not the several projects in one c::b instance approach .. - so the behaviour of 5.9 and previous versions is perfect for me
