I like a lot of what this can do. I have used Cocktail, Onyx, TinkerTool and others, and each has their strengths. This minimalist approach works fine for me. Now if I could only determine how to write a system-wide script to dismiss dialog boxes that prevent the orderly restart of a machine... (some of my apps throw up a dialog confirming that I want to quit, that will time out the logout and defeat the restart). Can an 'okey dokey' -like script be created and coupled with this effort to resolve the problem I have?

REALLY Shut Down! - dhsanto


Try this. Save as AppleScript script:

ignoring application responses
       tell application "loginwindow" to «event aevtshut»
end ignoring

This script comes with OnMyCommand (http://www.abracode.com/free/cmworkshop/on_my_command.html).

HTH.
