Whenever I have to resort to a lesser (*wink*) API to solve a problem, I
always like to wrap it in an appropriate category method, so my code looks
prettier. ;)

Nah, I wanted the least-complex solution. Those 3 lines of Process Manager
are less complex than adding a category :)

"launchedApplications" is great, but it only shows user-level

applications, not processes.

Is there an equivalent which also lists LSUIElement apps, command

line tools, etc?



I ran into the same thing, and found that none of the Cocoa

process-type

APIs consider LSUIElement apps.  Carbon Process Manager was my

workaround also.

The Cocoa process API seems to me to just be a poor shim atop the

Process Manager, anyway.





Nah... I have enough enhancement requests filed anyway. I'd rather

they work on some of my other bugs than add more Process Manager-like

stuff to Cocoa. Just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing anything

obvious.
