Well if you retained the results of the "do shell script" command used to launch each application the process ID is contained within those results. You could then parse out that process ID and use that to figure out which instance is which. It would be a little bit of a pain but it could be done. The solution, however, is left to the reader...

How many processes called iTunes do you expect to find?

Theoretically there could be more than one! :-)

Especially after that thread about using the shell to spawn multiple instances of an app. Of course in that case, how would you tell them apart?
