best approach?

Dear Applescript list,

I have an app which occasionally becomes unresponsive.

Is there any way to determine if the app is unresponsive and if so, to quit the application via applescript/shell script?

For example, if I have an applescript send a command to the app and the applescript times out (because the app has become unresponsive), is it possible to have applescript then test to see if the app is unresponsive and if so, to quit it, then restart the app?

Thanks for any advice,
Dee Dee
