I find that doesn't work OMM (OS X 10.2.8). "name of EVERY process whose frontmost is true" returns a one-item list which the "tell application" statement doesn't like. Changing it to "name of SOME process whose frontmost is true" fixes it as it returns a string.

I use "name of FIRST process whose". No point in adding an unnecessary randomized calculation and this way it stops searching the list of processes once it's found. Negligible I'm sure, but still.
