You can also open the Activity Monitor app and search for "pd." If the process has hung, it may also display "Not Responding" next to it.

That's for typing into a shell window - any hung-up Pd should show up in
"ps"
output.  (Actually, I'm not dead sure that's teh right command on macOS - I
should check :)


yeah, I thought it was something like that, but I had tried typing it with
variations of the thing, I tried googling it, and couldn't really get
anywhere.

But just tell me exactly what to do (as if I'm a dummy, which is true) and
I'll do it ;)
