NAME

       qprogram-starter - A program starter tool

SYNOPSIS

       qprogram-starter

DESCRIPTION

       qprogram-starter  is  a simple Qt4 program to start a program or process. If you like with
       the options to set a start date, to log output and errors, and to shutdown after finish.

       This program uses qdbus to send a shutdown request to the gnome-  or  kde-session-manager.
       If  it  won't  do gnome-power-cmd or gnome-power-cmd.sh will be used. When this also fails
       then qdbus will send the shutdown request to HAL or ConsoleKit (note that when sending the
       request  to  HAL  or  ConsoleKit the session will never be saved). And if this won't do as
       well, the sudo shutdown command will be used. In this case you need  root-rights,  so  one
       can to do the following:

       Post the following in a terminal: "EDITOR=nano sudo -E visudo" and add this line: "* ALL =
       NOPASSWD:/sbin/shutdown" whereas * replaces the username or %groupname.

Configurationfile qprogram-starter.conf

       The configurationfile (and logfiles) is located at ~/.qprogram-starter

KNOWN ISSUES

       For most systems using the Gnome Shell a certain DBus method  has  been  removed,  thus  a
       shutdown dialog will be likely to appear if qshutdown's methods have been set to automatic
       or to Gnome session. If you do not  want  this  shutdown  dialog  to  appear,  please  use
       ConsoleKit or something else.
