ShutDown v1.10
Disclaimer:
No liability and all that stuff.
License/Beg Clause:
ShutDown is shareware. Upload it everywhere!
If you find this program useful, the author would appreciate
a contribution of $5.00. The first version of ShutDown was
freeware. People had all sorts of neat requests, but I really
did not feel like working for free. Now that it is shareware,
I hope I will have some incentive to implement enhancements and
come up with other nifty programs. My address is:

Description:
Why click on Start to shutdown your computer in Windows 95?
In Windows NT, why go to the Program Manager, click on
File, Shutdown, and then shutdown? ShutDown makes it easier
by providing the same shutdown service NT's Program Manager
and 95's Start button does. Make it a shortcut on the
95 desktop. In Windows NT, I put it on my Microsoft Office
Toolbar. You can also run ShutDown from the command line.
Great for shutting down the computer from a batch file or a
scheduling program. The standard shutdown procedure is used,
so don't worry about losing data during the shutdown. NT or
95 will ask every running application if they want to quit or
not.
Command line parameters:
/RESTART will shutdown and restart the computer.
/LOGOFF will just log the current user off.
/HELP will display this same information.
Specifying nothing on the command line will shut down to a
power-off state.
Tips/Tricks:
Running ShutDown without any command line parameters will
just shut down to a power-off state. If you want a different
shut down, like a logoff or a complete reboot, you can add
the command line parameters discussed above. In Windows 95,
the best thing to do is to create a shortcut on your desktop.
To change the command line parameters, right click to the
Properties for the shortcut. Then click the Shortcut tab.
Now you can add /REBOOT or /LOGOFF to the end of the Target
line.
