Opening a new tab in a running instance is the default behaviour, there is something going wrong if it doesn't work. Look in `help->debug messages` after it opens a new instance.
Otherwise need more information.

Hi, I often open bash files from a script to edit by either doing this:
geany "some file.sh"or this
xdg-open "some file.sh"Every time I do that I get a separate instance of geany with the file. Is there a way to force it to *not* do a new instance but rather open a new pane or tab or whatever its called in an existing window?
