        I don't think BSD subsystem apps have Process Serial Numbers.
Try getting the parent process ID and check it against a pipe connected
to the ps command line app.
This will work, and will be reasonably efficient, since the check
only needs
to be done at startup.


Even better would be to use the open-source AGProcess class.  Get an
AGProcess for the current process, and look up the parent's AGProcess
and command.  Should be a lot easier than parsing ps, while also being
rather more reasonably sane.
