Just another way:
PUBLIC FUNCTION pidOf(program AS String) AS Boolean
'checks if a program is running
DIM gotpid AS String = ""
DIM running AS Boolean = FALSE
TRY SHELL "pidof " & program TO gotpid
IF gotpid THEN
running = TRUE
ELSE
running = FALSE
ENDIF
RETURN running
END
Usage:
IF pidOf("yourProgram") THEN whatever...
At least it works for me
