via launchd (open from the dock)

And that makes sense because launchd knows who owns the process.  e.g. the UID 
of Emacs is my user, not root.

    -+= 00001 root /sbin/launchd
     \-+= 00811 pedz /Applications/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs-x86_64-10_14
       \--= 15598 pedz /usr/local/bin/aspell -a -m -B --encoding=utf-8
