I tried several variations of this before going sending my question. Doesn't
work with our without the ".app" extension.
I have used this handler for years without a problem in OS X up to and including 10.8.
on killBusy() -- this handler kills the application "displayBusy" try tell application "System Events" if exists application process "displayBusy" then (unix id of application process "displayBusy") else return false end if end tell do shell script "kill " & the result end try return true end killBusy --------------------------------------------------
