NAME
       qprogram-starter - A program starter tool

SYNOPSIS
       qprogram-starter

DESCRIPTION
       qprogram-starter is a simple Qt4 program to start a program or process. If you like with the options to set a start date, to log output and
       errors, and to shutdown after finish.

       This program uses qdbus to send a shutdown request to the gnome- or kde-session-manager. If it won't  do  gnome-power-cmd  or  gnome-power-
       cmd.sh  will  be  used.	When  this  also  fails then qdbus will send the shutdown request to HAL or ConsoleKit (note that when sending the
       request to HAL or ConsoleKit the session will never be saved). And if this won't do as well, the sudo shutdown command  will  be  used.	In
       this case you need root-rights, so one can to do the following:

       Post  the following in a terminal: "EDITOR=nano sudo -E visudo" and add this line: "* ALL = NOPASSWD:/sbin/shutdown" whereas * replaces the
       username or %groupname.

Configurationfile qprogram-starter.conf
       The configurationfile (and logfiles) is located at ~/.qprogram-starter
