Hey Folks,

I just noticed this while writing a reply on the Keyboard Maestro forum.

Item 2 below is written:

```plaintext
2. It seems that I don't have to specifically exclude background apps (e.g., Dropbox, Hazel, Alfred, etc.). It appears that those continue to run. Is that the expected behavior?

```

It is clearly prefixed with a “2. ”, but Discourse is changing it to a “1. ”.

Original Text:

> 1. The script doesn’t seem to reliably quit all apps. I find that occasionally 2-3 apps are still running after the script finishes.

Specify exactly what apps are failing to quit.
