- Hi,
-
- SHUTDOWN.C (and SHUTDOWN.PRG) was written for MiNT+N.AES users. N.AES comes
- with N.Closure, fine program for graceful shutdown of system. MiNTOS (KGMD)
- does fsck (checking disk filesystem) on every startup unless file
- /etc/fastboot is found. This file should be created when system goes down.
- Since N.Closure doesn't create this file, I write the SHUTDOWN program for
- this. It just creates the file and launches N.Closure (defined in SDMASTER
- env. variable in default N.AES setup).
-
- The beauty of Clocky and JCLKTool is that the usual hotkey combination
- Alt-Control-Q is intercepted by Clocky and JCLKTool starts SHUTDOWN.PRG.
- This in turn starts N.Closure, so for user *nothing changes*, just the next
- boot is much faster (because fsck is skipped).
