Tuviah reports that this problem has been fixed for OS X, but before that, I used this workaround before trying the "launch" command:

  if the openProcesses contains appPath then
    kill process appPath
  end if

where "appPath" is a variable containing the complete path to the application you wish to launch. Maybe this would work in Windows as well? In OS X, once Rev had launched an app, it wouldn't re-launch it even if the application had been quit, however this seems to be a workable solution and on OS X it does not actually close the application before re-launching.

What about any unsaved work in the open application?

I don't understand the "kill" command because it just seems to delete the process name from Rev's internal list of open processes - it doesn't actually close the running app at all! Since this seems very counter-intuitive it might not be a great idea to reply on it, but at the moment, this solution works fine. It doesn't close the running app, so no unsaved changes are lost but it allows Rev to bring it to the front again when the launch command is used, without producing an error.

BTW: replacing the "kill" with "close" works as well. This might be a better solution.

Cheers,
Sarah
