- # How to use Quit
-
- For using Quit simply start it when you start Windows (you may do
- this putting it in the StartUp group, if your shell is the Microsoft
- Program Manager).
- From this moment, if you double click its icon, or its window,
- depending on the look option you choosed, your Windows session will
- be terminated.
- To show the menu, click the system menu box on the upper left corner,
- or click the icon only once. The menu contains the following
- commands:
-
- Exit Windows
- The Exit Windows command causes your Windows session to end; it
- has the same effect as double clicking the icon.
-
- Restart Windows
- The Restart Windows command causes Windows to end and restart.
- However you will be prompted for saving all unsaved works.
-
- Reboot Computer
- The Reboot Computer command is only shown if the Enable Reboot
- option has been set from the options dialog box.
- This command causes your computer to reboot. However you will be
- prompted for saving all unsaved works.
-
- Help
- The Help command shows the help on Quit.
-
- About
- The About command shows a dialog box with some information about
- the program.
-
- Options
- The options command pops up the Options dialog box, where you can
- set up the program options.
-
- The other commands have the usual meaning of every Windows program.
-
-
- # Options
-
- Choose one of the following:
- Command line options
- Options dialog box
-
-
- # Command line options
-
- Quit has only one command line option: -x or, equivalently, exit.
- If specified, this options causes Quit to end Windows immediatley: It
- doesn't show itself as an icon you can click to end Windows, but the
- exiting process is started immediatley. This option is useful to have
- an icon on the program manager to click for exiting Windows, instead
- to have to choose Exit Windows from the Program Manager File menu.
-
-
- # Options Dialog box
-
- In the Options Dialog box you choose some configuration setting.
- The options in the Startup group take effect only when you restart
- Quit. The others take effect immediately.
-
- Look options:
- In the Look group there are three check boxes that lets you
- choose the look of the program.
-
- Enable Reboot option check box
- If the enable reboot check box is checked Quit shows the Reboot
- Computer command in the menu.
- For this option to take effect you must close Quit and then
- restart it. This is made to allow network administrators to
- prevent users to set this option. In fact Quit checks the
- quit.ini file at the start, and set the reboot option according
- to that file. If the file is made read only by the network
- administrator, user will never be able to modify this option.
- This has been required to me by a network administrator.
-
- Confirmation on exit check box
- If the Confirmation on exit check box is checked Quit will ask
- you for a confirmation before starting the exiting procedure.
-
- Stay always on top
- If the Stay always on top check box is checked, the Quit icon
- will always be visible on top of all others windows on the
- desktop.
-
-
- # Look Options
-
- In the Look group there are three radio buttons: check one of them to
- set the visual apperance of the program. The new setting do not take
- effect until you close Quit and then restart it. All the
- functionalities of the program remain the same, independently of its
- appearance.
- The check boxes are:
-
- - Icon: if this button is checked Quit looks like
- a normal icon.
- - Small window: if this button is checked Quit
- looks like a normal window that is not resizable. Its size if the
- size of an icon, plus a small title bar.
- - Big window: if this button is checked Quit looks
- like a normal sizable window, containig the program icon
- surrounded by a three dimensional border.
