- The above alias assumes that init was the first thing started by MiNT. To do
- the equivalent in bash it is "alias shutdown="kill -15 1"" or you can just
- use kill -15 1 on the command line.

- I don't know, I've ditched Bash in favour of a combination of ash and tcsh
- (That reminds me, I've got to post those diffs to ash which allows it to
- work properly). Anyway, I always used my own oport of Bash anyhow :-).
