Webkit r44552 & r44591. When webkit or webarchive or url opened in Finder I get a new version of Safari each time. Each version has only the url or archive clicked on, or has whatever pages I opened within that version. In other words each version is distinct from all the others. The menu entry reads Safari for each invocation and the dock shows multiple versions of "Safari" - previously the dock would show ONE entry for WEBKIT and there would be only one copy of Safari!

I know what's going on here.  I made some tweaks to the WebKit nightly launcher recently to improve the behavior with Safari 4, and they result in this behavior if you're still using Safari 3.  You can trivially avoid this problem by updating to Safari 4.  I'll attempt to fix this next week when I have some free time.

"and having WebKitNightlyEnabler assume that it did"

What is the 'it' in the comment here? The trampoline detection tricks? Then it should be a plural.

Other than that, r=me.

Fixed with r44680.  I'll build a new nightly containing the fix soon.
