This module can be used to list running processes, set the front process and quit any/all processes. Clicking on the module display will bring up a popup menu with a list of all running applications. The process currently in front will be marked with a bullet (•). Choosing one of these processes will cause that process to become the front-most process.
Holding down the shift key while choosing the module will display a similar list of applications, but in this case choosing one of them will cause that process to quit. Choosing 'All but Finder' will cause all processes to be quit, leaving just the finder. This is useful for quiting everything to free up memory for a large application or when memory becomes fragmented. This option will quit _all_ processes including background processes such as the Express Modem, etc. To quit just applications, choose the option 'All Applications'.
Limitations
-----------
There are a couple of things to keep in mind when using the module. First shutting down the processes requires the use of Apple Events. This can only be done if the front-most application is capable of handling Apple Events. For most applications this isn't a problem, but if you are using an older application you may have to switch to the Finder or other Apple Event aware application.
