Re: Key bindings for shutdown, reboot?

2016-02-28 Thread A M

Hello

I've looked at the wiki article 'Shutdown Dialog' and added an alternate 
script (the main improvement being improved keyboard-friendliness :) ). 
Feel free to comment on it.


Best Regards
Alex

I haven't needed a dialog yet since it would be really hard to press 
both Shift and Pause at the same time by accident, but that looks like 
a great idea for when other people need to shutdown the computer.

Hello

Is possible to create key bindings for shutting down or
rebooting the computer?

As a next step, it might be good to have some form of
secondary confirmation that the user really wants to do
this action (in case the key binding was entered
accidentally). I guess maybe some simple popup
window/dialog might be an easy solution? "Reboot computer?
Yes/No"
