Gordon,

  You are correct about how other icons respond to command
double click, but the NeXT icon is DIFFERENT.
If the fileviewer is already displayed, then command double click
hides every application INCLUDING the file viewer.
Its like a hide all with extreme prejudice. it doesnt bring
the file viewer forward.

  If the file viewer is already hidden, then command double click
does the same thing for workspace that it does for every other app.
