I had the very same idea when this was discussed a long time ago in Lazarus list. Martin Friebe noted that every application would then depend on this single-instance IPC code. It was a valid point. There should not be such a dependency. The right way is to use a drag-and-drop LCL component like the one from Luiz Américo. The question is should we replace his component with a better one based on Ondrej's AdvancedIPC. I think we should because SimpleIPC apparently has limitations. Michael, an LCL component is as beginner friendly as your SingeInstance property would be.
