It is considered rude and uncivilized for applications to
unconditionally activate themselves at startup because the
user may have activated some other application in the mean
time (see - activateSelf: (Application)).

I have included the source for "activate" that you can use to
activate your application after you "open" it.  You might want
to add some enhancements such as appending ".app" if
NXPortFromName() can't find the application as specified.
