1. What is wmshutdown?
wmshutdown is a Window Maker dock application that allows you to
shut down or reboot your machine just by clicking a button on your
desktop. It's useful just for desktop machines, so there's no need to
keep typing shutdown now -h every time you have to go away for some
reason.
I'd be thankful for any fixes or comments about it.
2. Security issues
Prior to version 1.1, wmshutdown used a setuid program (Shutdown or
wmshutdown-run) to actually shut down the computer, introducing
potential security risks. Beginning in version 1.1, wmshutdown uses
logind instead. In version 1.2, ConsoleKit support was added.
3. Install/Uninstall
./configure (or ./configure --with-consolekit to use ConsoleKit)
make
make install [as root]
4. License
wmshutdown is released under the GPL v3+. See COPYING for more details.
