Re: manual update 13/10/2014 and shutdown

 

Oh,
Ok, I think I understand
I am not entirely sure but the current version has:

 <RootMenu height="0" onroot="9">
        <Program icon="preferences-system-session.svg" label="Shutdown
Menu">jwm-settings-manager --halt</Program>
        <Program icon="system-restart.svg" label="*Restart Computer
NOW*">dbus-send --system --print-reply --dest=org.freedesktop.ConsoleKit
/org/freedesktop/ConsoleKit/Manager
org.freedesktop.ConsoleKit.Manager.Restart</Program>
        <Restart label="Reload Desktop" icon="system-restart.svg"/>
        <Exit label="Logout" confirm="true" icon="system-logout.svg"/>
    </RootMenu>

This will reboot automatically.  This is very useful in this testing
phase.  If we need it to prompt the user for confirmation, I am fine
with this.  We can add in something in a later phase, but I like the
ability to have a quick option.  We could simply remove it and just use
the shutdown dialog.
I could even make the shutdown dialog look different as well...
I haven't spent much time on the jwm-settings-manager right now... too
busy with the OS, and the programs within it.

I do want a localized shutdown menu for people.  We now have
(tentatively) a localized Places menu (though I need to actually test
this :)  if xdg-user-dir works as expected then the Places menu should work.

We also need a good way to add users easily.

But I think we are making good progress for such a small team :)
