Create a .desktop file that runs "poweroff" or "reboot" depending on what you're wanting to do.
Thank you!
That will work perfectly.
I can easily work this into a bash script.
$ Xdialog --icon "/usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/actions/xfsm-shutdown.png" --wrap --title "Power Off" --yesno 'Power off?' 8 40; echo $?
Okay, I might have gotten a little silly here, but this will work for low skill users.
<PowerOff.sh> #!/usr/bin/bash
# pop up dialog to power off the computer
Icon="/usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/actions/xfsm-shutdown.png" Title="Power Off" Msg="Power off?" InfoBox="Powering off / shutting down the computer\n\n NNNNOOOOOOooooooo....." Help="\ YES powers off the computer (Shutdown)\n\ NO cancels the operation\n\ HELP give you this silly message"
# Xdialog: --yesno <text> <height> <width> # Xdialog: --yesno: : 0 = yes; 1 = no; 255 = "X" in the upper right corner Xdialog --icon "$Icon" --left --help "$Help" --title "$Title" --yesno "$Msg" 12 60 ReturnNum=$? # echo $ReturnNum
if [ $ReturnNum == 0 ]; then echo "Power Off initiated"
# Xdialog: --infobox <text> <height> <width> [<timeout in milliseconds>] Xdialog --title "$Title" --infobox "$InfoBox" 10 75 4000 poweroff
else echo "Power off operation cancelled" fi </PowerOff.sh
