This should be reworded since it's not true since a long time one need explicit -i, isn't it? Or do I get the sentence wrong?
Well, maybe "secondary" instead of second, since I used "subsequent" in the previous paragraph.
-i is required only if you want to open CL files in a new instance, instead of passing them to an already running one (explained under "Command line options" before "Startup"). If you have a Geany, and start another from, say, your DE menu (i.e. without CL), it becomes (new instance) automatically.
