which programs are currently running in the dock?

[farzin]

is there an easy way to find out which programs are running rather then pressing CMD+tab?

Programs running have a little black triangle under their icons, or to the left or right depending on where you have your dock placed.

 

[SmurfBoxMasta]

the little triangles under each app's icon is usually a pretty good indicator

ps: if u cant see them, there are mods to change their color to make 'em more visible

 

[MacDawg]

Your running apps should be highlighted on the dock underneath the icon
