I looked in detail how this should be done. Normally a "ApplicationListener" is registered int he application to receive "open file" events.
Unfortunately, because Gephi is launched with the Netbeans launcher script, and not the JavaApplicationStub these events don't make it until the application, and there is no workaround. Netbeans IDE has the same issue: http://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=138943 ** Bug watch added: netbeans.org/bugzilla/ #138943 http://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=138943 ** Changed in: gephi Status: Confirmed => Won't Fix ** Changed in: gephi/0.7 Status: Confirmed => Won't Fix -- double clicking .gephi file in osx does not open gephi https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/628900 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Gephi Team, which is subscribed to 0.7.
