if you're on unix-flavour systems like MacOS X, bsd, linux, you can use 
the shell function with "ps -auxc" this will list every process running 
along with many info.

if you're the one launching the process (from Rev) you can use 
openProcesses to retrieve the processes...

don't know how to do it on classic...
