how can i modify shutdown option in main menu ?
 

hi
i want to modify main menu shutdown option so that it shows
the list of users logged in when theshutdown option is clicked.
pls tell me where can i find the script that displays the dialog box that prompts the user to choose shutdown, restart or cancel.

Not sure how to do that, but if you open a terminal and type "w", it will tell you what users are logged in.

You could write a shell script which executes the following commands:

w
poweroff

You would have to change the permissions or run the script as root, I guess, to execute the poweroff command.

Don't forget "sleep", otherwise it will execute "w" in a thousandth of a second and then shutdown, you'd never be able to read it.

i have the script that displays a dialog box that shows the users logged in.
what i want to know is how to link this script to shutdown option in main menu
