Files don't open in most recently used window and does not bring Atom to the foreground

[mafredri]

When I have multiple Atom windows open, files keep opening in the first, not the most recently used one. Opening a file does also not bring Atom to the foreground. This is quite annoying and often results in the user (me) believing remote-atom isn't working.

It should be fixed now.

Thanks for the prompt fix! It definitely fixes the issue of focusing atom, but it still doesn't open in the most recently active window, no matter what I do it keeps opening in one specific Atom window.

Atom windows do not communicate as far as I know, see. Each window is a new process, there are not easy ways to tell another window (the active window) to do something, for example, opening a file. I am afraid that the second issue is unfixable, at least, for the moment.

I see, thanks for the explanation! It's a shame that Atom doesn't support this, one can hope that it gets better down the road.

Anyway, this new focus feature makes it so much better already, thanks a lot for the plugin!
