Greetings ConEmu Team,

I'm using ConEmu to attach to FAR Manager and an instance of Notepad++.  I have these
shown in a split-pane ConEmu window (split 50/50).  Here is the issue:

1. In the Far Manager pane, I highlight a text file in a folder, and press 'Enter'
to open it in my default application (see screen cap #1).  Currently, I have Notepad++
set as my default application for TXT files.  So I'd like to have the TXT file open
in the instance of Notepad++ that is already open and attached to ConEmu.

2. Instead, I observe that a second instance of Notepad++ is opened (see screen cap
#2).  The desired result is shown in screen cap #3.

I'm using the latest dev version (140302).

Thanks as always,
Jim

On the first look, I can't do anything with that.
All work is made by Far Manager and Notepad++.
And it is not related to ConEmu at all..

Thanks for taking a look.. easy workaround is to just click/drag the TXT file from FAR
Manager pane to Notepad++ pane.
