    It’s okay… I think I found my answer:

    tell application 'System Events' to set the visible of every process to true  set white_list to {'Finder'}  try     tell application 'Finder'         set process_list to the name of every process whose visible is true     end tell     repeat with i from 1 to (number of items in process_list)         set this_process to item i of the process_list         if this_process is not in white_list then             tell application this_process                 quit             end tell         end if     end repeat on error     tell the current application to display dialog 'An error has occurred!' & return & 'This script will now quit' buttons {'Quit'} default button 1 with icon 0 end try
