No multiple GIMP instances...

Hi!

I'm used Gimp in Windows XP. I have a problem with it that I don't found any option to disable multiple applications.

The Gimp is my default picture editor, but when I try to open more than one image file (or open a new image file) - I get multiple instances of the Gimp.
I want to use one application, and every new file must be opened in this Gimp.

Can I set this option in anywhere?

Thanks for your help: dd

Not in the GIMP itself.

Associate the image files with gimp-win-remote.exe instead of gimp-x.x.exe, or whatever version you are using.

Good information to have... also, images can be dragged to the GIMP toolbox to open them, instead of clicking on their icons.
