Just got a chance to look into your replies... So here are my
questions/comments.

Okay, sounds good.

That makes sense, as application names are subject to change.  Is there some
panel in Activity Monitor that I'm missing that shows you the Bundle ID of
all the processes?  I am not quitting my own application (as you may have
guessed) but I do need some way to find it for another application.

I didn't get a chance to play around with NSWorkspace before I emailed you
back, so I didn't quite know if it was.


On another topic: Is there someway to have NSWorkspace show all the
processes open?  Right now it is showing me the applications, but the
process that I'm targeting isn't really an application and doesn't have an
interface.



Thanks
