[LINUX/MAC/WINDOWS] Force single instance of XBMC, run only one copy of the executabe
#1
Lightbulb 
Are there any switches that I can include in the shortcut to make xbmc.exe behave as follows (Vista Premium)?

I realize that I could write a vbscript or possibly use this application to achieve the following, but they seem to me inelegant solutions.

On execution of xbmc.exe
If xbmc.exe is running
then switch to xbmc.exe
and maximize window
and steal focus
else
start xbmc.exe
End If

Any ideas?

Thanks!
