  17. My FinderEvents XCMD does this.  You can find it on ftp.apple.com as
  18. /pub/pugh/hyperstuff/finderevents121.cpt.hqx
  19.  
  20. This performs an identical function to pulling down the Finder's Shutdown
  21. menu item.  It will still stop for save dialogs, etc. if there are unsaved
  22. docs or programs that are obnoxious.
  23.  
  24. It also performs a large variety of other functions, including launching
  25. applications on remote machines.
