That will work in OSX AS. If you try running it under Classic AS (ie. while
Classic is running under OSX), it will fail. Classic AS doesn't understand
the "process" instruction and returns an error.
I gather that Classic AS is meant to re-direct "process" instructions so
that they'll execute correctly, but it doesn't work.

My question;

Is there a way to tell if OS X is running?
Since I didn't get an answer I ran:
tell application "Finder"
set procs to name of every process
end tell
--> and got
--> {"loginwindow", "Finder", "Dock", "iTunesHelper", "System
Events", "SystemUIServer"}
--> I stripped the apps from this
"Dack" seem to be a safe indicater of OS X running so I tried:
tell application "Finder"
set appRunning to "Dock"
if exists process appRunning then
tell me to display dialog "The application \"" &
appRunning & "\" is running."
end if
end tell
Works for me.
