the behaviour depends of gvim and of its .desktop entry

Ok update if I try to open multiple *.cpp files (no headers) it opens them in multiple gvims, but if I select multiple *.pl's no such buggy behaviour

I've checked the gvim.destop file and it clearly uses %F not %f also if it was that it would be consistent across file types
