Zsh calls geany in the same window where zsh is, and then that geany calls the other geany using a private protocol and hands off the file. Zsh doesn't know about any of this, all it can tell is that the local geany started and then stopped.
Ok, it sounds like the sensible thing. There must be some OS level mechanism whereby geany #2 discovers geany #1, but it sounds like none of zsh's business.
