[QUOTE="ApplejustWorks, post: 406438, member: 2105"] The majority of time you need to be aware of other apps is if you're looking to set a default for a protocol (open these files with this app, programmatically), where you use [URL="http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Carbon/Reference/LaunchServicesReference/Reference/reference.html"]Launch Services[/URL]. This is Carbon, but as of now it is the only way to access this infrastructure. If you're looking at launched apps, NSWorkspace's launchedApplications method returns an NSArray with that information. Anyway, why do you need to know the apps on the system? If you give the context, perhaps I can lead you further. [/QUOTE]
