I never tried this in a document based application, however when an 
application is opened the openFile..method is called before the 
NSApplicationDidFinishLaunch notification is sent, so i make a BOOL 
which i set to a value in the init method and change its value in the 
handler of that notification. Based on the status of that BOOL if the 
application was open by finder or dragging a file on it or it was 
open by double clicking on it.
