Sorry, where should this be set? Global Options?
Better in user options.

SciTE -check.if.already.open file.txt
This did not seem to work for me either. Is there any logical reason
that comes to mind
Of course, SciTE must be in the path or full path must be given.
Example for Windows:
"C:\Program Files\UText\SciTE\SciTE.exe" -check.if.already.open=0 Report.txt
(one line)
If you omit the option (or set it to 1), it will open a new tab in the
current instance if the corresponding menu item isn't deselected.
If you provide the above option, it will open the file in a new instance
of SciTE.
On Windows at least, when the option is set to 0, it deactivates the
menu item, so you cannot open another file in this instance this way
(but can still with File > Open or drag'n'drop).
On second thought, it isn't so smart (it is my design...), I should not
deactivate this item so user can change his mind and allow this instance
to accept new files.
The rationale behind the current design is that if the option is set to
0, that's because the user always wants only one file per instance (I
think that's the way Neil uses SciTE).
But I forgot local settings, command-line dynamic settings, and so on.
