I would like another option on my power button shutdown menu. I am hoping to be able to have a power button press trigger this program to execute a user definable shutdown command after user definable time period has passed. The shutdown process must be stopped by a simple click on a cancel button on the warning screen. My use for such a program: I have a car PC installed in my truck. As I turn the ignition off, my power supply sends a button press signal to the motherboard, and thus windows, to turn off/hibernate the system (as per my choice in the windows XP power controls). I'd like the option to cancel this shutdown/hibernate if I'm going to be right back (getting gas, etc), but have it continue if I do nothing and leave. ## Deliverables 1) Complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done. 2) Deliverables must be in ready-to-run condition, as follows (depending on the nature of the deliverables): a)Deliverables must come with a [login to view URL] file explaining installation and use. b) For all others including desktop software or software the buyer intends to distribute: A software installation package that will install the software in ready-to-run condition on the platform(s) specified in this bid request. 3) All deliverables will be considered "work made for hire" under U.S. Copyright law. Buyer will receive exclusive and complete copyrights to all work purchased. (No GPL, GNU, 3rd party components, etc. unless all copyright ramifications are explained AND AGREED TO by the buyer on the site per the coder's Seller Legal Agreement). ## Platform Windows XP
