Halo Demo PID Grabber v1.3

This applescript tool grabs the PID of all Halo Demo's currently running. This is good for memory hacking that requires the PID.

It even has a kill button for killing Halo Demo. There is a slight bug that if there is multiple Halo Demo's running then it will have an error.

Note: This is an application bug. It can and probably WILL accidentally get its own PID. Pick the top one first if you opened Halo Demo before the PID grabber. If you opened the grabber first, pick the bottom one.

Amy, you have four times the amount of posts I have. Surely you know what PID is. PID is Process ID. Most operating systems use this for each process such as Safari or Halo Demo, or even Microsoft Internet Explorer.

You would need this PID for some memory hacking apps that can't automatically target Halo Demo. For example, Halo Color Tool. This is why they require a PID. Using this app, you won't have to go into Activity Monitor to find the PID there.

So is it just another activity monitor?

PID = Process ID

and how the hell is this useful? All conventional memory modification tools allow the selection of a running application without the need of the PID.

Halo Color Tool was one of my examples.

No, just not many people have the patience or knowledge to use it. I never found out how to use it, and i dont really care all that much to learn how. So in other words, i guess i contradict myself, because anything that no one has the know how to use something is use less.

what I am saying is why should I use your program over typing "top" into terminal. There is no reason, there is nothing that makes this unique or specially useful.
