- GENERAL INTRODUCTION TO SHUTDOWN BUDDY
- ______________________________________
-
-
- Shutdown Buddy is a shareware application that allows you to set a time to
- shut down (or reset) the Macintosh in the future, and at the appropriate time...yes,
- you guessed it, it shuts down (or resets.) It is an application that you can leave
- running in the background, and doesn't take very much memory. Also, you can abort the
- shut down (or reset) by going back to the application and hitting the "abort the countdown"
- button.
-
- To set the time you simply click on the date field or the time field, and
- little arrows will appear allowing you to adjust the time to shut down. If
- you wish, you can also type into the fields when they are highlighted instead
- of using the arrows. When you have set the appropriate time to shut down (or reset), hit
- shutdown (or reset), and then you can hide Shutdown Buddy, or click into the finder to put
- it in the background. You will be given a warning at 1 minute to go in the
- shutdown process. You can abort at any time by going back to the application and
- selecting the abort button.
-
- This program was written because my wife wanted an easy way to have a timed
- shut down on her Mac, and so here it is, Shutdown Buddy!
-
- Anyway, it’s shareware, so you have nothing to lose by trying. If you like
- it, you should send me something - $10 or at least a postcard if you’re on a
- real tight budget. Send to:
