Product Description:
Mac Shutdown X is an amazing small utility designed to shutdown the Mac after a big file download or at the time the user specifies or on other events. It can help a user start a download of big files over the net and have the Mac automatically turned off when the download is finished in the night. It is customizable using a easy to use setting setup panel (no coding or editing of script required). It's small, fast, simple and reliable.
The user can choose to shutdown the Mac:
- On a scheduled plan
- On a specific date and time
- When a generic file is removed or moved on your Hard Disk
- When a download is finished (dragging and dopping it on Mac Shutdown X):
- using Safari
- using Firefox or Camino or Netscape
- using Speed Download
- At launch time to use it via Apple iCal
- Using Web restart
Mac Shutdown X is the successor on Mac OS X of our old Shutdown Controller for Mac OS Classic but has not a single line of code in common with the old Shutdown Controller. It is native and was entirely rewritten on Mac OS X for Mac OS X using Objective-C and Cocoa. The result is a pleasant, small utility that does its job in a simply and elegant way.
What's new in this version:
- Redesign of the setting area
- New method of restart by web keyword (a keyword inside a remote web page can launch the restart, from one to an unlimited number of remote Macs)
- Bug Fix
- Internal Engine improvements
- New PDF user guide

- Mac OS X 10.5 Intel

Pause: Monitors almost any task, sleeps/shuts down/restarts when task is completed.

Pause is really all you need. It is far more powerful than Mac Shutdown X, and freeware. No comparison. If you want something better than Safari's pitiful download manager, then give iGetter a shot. It's shareware, but you can use it for free, just by waiting a few seconds and clicking a widget at the splash screen.
