Sure is, however for your script to unload itself it needs to accept the
command line parameter "stop". Example
--CUT--
#!/bin/sh
case "$1" in
start)
# start commands here
;;
stop)
# stop commands here
;;
*)
echo "Usage: $0 {start|stop}"
esac
--CUT--
Depending on the programs your script starts it may even be safe to let
the system kill you apps off upon a halt/reboot, however if you like the
satisfaction of being in complete control then go by the standard.
