This tells the system that it DOES HAVE UI (like the Dock). If you have
no UI, use LSBackgroundOnly.
helperPath = [[NSBundle mainBundle]
pathForResource:helperAppNameShort ofType:@"app"];
[[NSWorkspace sharedWorkspace] launchApplication: helperPath];
This works well enough, but my main app's main window becomes
deselected afterwards. Also the menu bar is deselected - I click on the
menu bar and it's "dead" - no menus drop down. Once I click on the
main window, it becomes selected and menus work again.
This is normally what you'd want. You can change this behaviour if you
use LaunchServices, though (part of the ApplicationServices.framework
umbrella).
