Running Apps

[B9E]

Is it possible to make a workflow where Alfred displays the currently running apps and then lets me either switch to one of them or quit one of them?

 

Thanks.

Viewing running apps and quitting them is already built-in using the keyword "quit"

Alternatively (without Alfred) you can use command-Tab to switch and command-Q (while the command-Tab view is still on the screen) to quit an app without switching to it.

What I would love is in essence something like command-Tab but where instead of a list of icons, Alfred would list the names of the apps and I could search through them and choose (or quit) one by starting to type the letters of the name of the program.  Thanks.
