My script goes bad because there is “EyeTV” and “EyeTV Helper” processes. What ps “code” lists only apps which has GUI.

I’m about 93.5% positive there isn’t one.

Maybe this is sufficient

tell application "System Events"
	get processes whose visible is true
end tell

@StefanK

tell application "System Events"
	get processes whose visible is true
end tell

That will exclude GUI apps the user has hidden via command-H or one of its variants.

tell application "System Events"
	get processes whose background only is false
end tell

Much better, Mikey
