Probably not really a help for you:
My apps use a 'appname.lock' file (no real lock, I'm on Windows, too, but only a "I'm running" sign containing their PID) and look for a 'appname.stop' file in the same dir, so my other apps can check the 'locks' if the PID is still running and can write a 'stop' file that causes the appropriate app to end itself. That is easy enough to work even with simple Batches...
