Suggestion: Opening file does not need to open new inky window #97

Hi, whenever I open inky and then open an ink file, it opens a new inky window (while a blank/untitled one remains in the background). Is there any reason for that? Otherwise it could directly open the content of an ink file in the very first window. It might even make sense to let inky remember which file was opened last and suggest to re-open it when inky is started.

Good point! Also, if you're opening a file that's an include of a project that's currently open, it could simply switch to it.

Was going to open a similar issue, but thought I'd just bump this one. It would be great if opening Inky made it reopen the last-used Ink file.

I'm getting this behavior even if I double-click on an existing Ink file. It doesn't open that file, it opens a new/blank file instead, and then I have to double-click on the file again to open it.

Not a huge deal, but definitely annoying and seemingly an easy fix worth implementing.
