Hi Tarlika,

A possibility (under KDE, at least) is to set up the mime-types so that 
clicking a data file opens GC with that data file.  GC doesn't seem to do 
this out of the box on my system.  That way, it is as simple as selecting the 
relevant data file to have multiple instances running.

HTH,
Maf.
