Is there any way to create a custom growl notification to alert when
an application on OSX “Unexpectedly quits”? I use Prowl on my iphone,
but I have a application (that occasionally quits) running in the
background that I want to monitor while I am not in front of the
computer.

Any Help is appreciated. Thanks.

It should be possible to create an application that does that.
Possibly even an AppleScript script.

You should send the crash logs from the application to its developers,
if you haven't already. And, of course, make sure you're using the
current version. It's possible that they have already fixed the crash,
or could fix it but don't know about it.
