Right, first the questions:

1. Either from the open dialog or recent files menu.
2. Yep, opening from the command line opens in the first instance.
3. Running on Ubuntu 6.06 in Gnome.
4. It doesn't work for any of the files that I've edited.
5. None of the files I've worked on have a path over 256 characters.

I've attatched the config file, hope it helps.

Thanks,
Rowan Lewis.
