I hadn't heard that, I kind of doubt it. I use that command in a lot
of scripts I'd hate have to fix that in every script I migrate to
later versions.
Can anyone confirm that processes is going to be deprecated?
No, because it's not -- System Events' "process" class is alive and
well. I do keep trying to get people to quit using variants of 'name
of every process contains "foo"', because it's inefficient and obscure
-- if you must use System Events, 'exists process "foo"' is better --
but that's a different matter.
