Greetings,

I have a neat perl application that uses Wx (wxPerl). It runs on Linux, Windows and MacOS.

One of the things currently missing on MacOS is the ability to respond to Finder commands. For example, double-clicking on an associated document should start the application. The association is dealt with in the app's Info.plist and works -- double-clicking the document starts the application but the application always starts with its main window, as if the application was double-clicked instead of the document.

The wxWidgets docs suggest that I should override Wx::App::MacOpenFiles but this function does not seem to be in wxPerl.

Are there any PerlMonks using wxPerl on MacOS that could shed some light on this?
