- But you can, of course, replace 'halt' (or 'shutdown' I suppose) with a shell
- script that does what you want then calls the original with whatever
- arguments you desire.
-
- I have /etc/halt play a C3P0 sound "If you won't be needing me, I think I'll
- shut down for a while" and then halts.
-
- The power key does an /etc/halt -e -p so this works for that as well.
