Ubuntu - Run single instance listener

[Ghislain BUGNICOURT-2]

Dear all,

I'm trying to correct a strange behavior of imagej on Ubuntu : when
opening several images at the same time while ImageJ isn't started, the
single instance listener (if checked in misc. options) doesn't work and
one instance is started for each image.
If ImageJ is already open, it works well (with imageJ 1.45e)

I can't repeat this on MacOSX, that's why I try to correct the bug. :)

I learned how to compile ImageJ, so I can test any idea of yours, if you
tell me what to modify in the source code !

I saved a stack as "stackA.zip" and renamed it in the OS X Finder to "stackB.zip". Maybe due to a bug, ImageJ ignores my renaming and re-opens the file as "stackA.tif" .

I wonder if .zip could become a "normal" file format, i.e. omitting the detour via '.tif' while the stack is open.

Generally it is desirable that file names correspond to image titles. Currently, problems occur when getFileList() should interoperate with those images that are open (also because ImageJ may change the titles by appending a numerical suffix like "-1" or "-2").

I think the issue is that the files inside the .zip file still have the
old names.
