Quitling

Quitling is a reliable software that allows you to terminate any application or background processes with ease. It is designed as a Menu Extra, sitting in the right-most part of the menu bar at all times and keeping track of open applications. The software gives you the option to select an application from the menu and end it quickly, regardless of whether it's launching, running normally or frozen.

With Quitling's AutoKill feature, you can go a step further and prevent certain programs from even starting. Classic and alternate browsers that are always unwanted can be kept at bay, giving you more control over your system. Quitling also has the AutoStart feature which ensures your server software, mail programs and other vital applications keep running at all times.

Quitling features a host of other functionalities which can be accessed from within the software. You can perform general actions such as Hide Others, Show All and Quit All, manipulating your applications like Mac OS 9 and earlier systems. Launching functionality lets you open commonly used applications or documents straight from the Quitling menu.

Quitling is highly customizable, allowing you to choose between a full-blown menu with every possible option at your fingertips or a tiny popup - available anywhere in your system - for quickly switching between applications. The software can be configured to do as much or as little as you like, with everything being accessible from the System Preferences panel.

The only drawback of Quitling is its limited functionality. Overall, Quitling is an excellent software worth considering if you need more control over your applications and background processes. Its AutoKill and AutoStart features stand out, making it an ideal software for anyone who wants to streamline their system operations.
