I know that somebody wrote a Cocoa wrapper for this, but a quick search didn't find it. I'm sure there's more in the archives if you dig.

Oh, and if you only care about GUI processes, then it's easy: - [NSWorkspace launchedApplications] gives you a list of all launched apps.

Hi,
This is not necessarily a Cocoa question, but this is for a Cocoa
App. I have done a search for this, and have tried to figure this.
But what I need to do is, given a process name (Application or other
type), how can I find out if that process is running. Because if it
is running already I need to do something different. I know this
sounds weird, but if I was to explain the whole story behind
this, it
would take way to long. I thought this would be pretty easy
to figure
out, but I have not found anything yet.
