NAME
       ninit-shutdown - shutdown the ninit init system.

SYNOPSIS
       ninit-shutdown -[rhoqvstmST] [-E /path/to/program [arg1 arg2 ...]]


DESCRIPTION
       ninit-shutdown tries to properly shutdown your system with ninit.


USAGE
       -r	reboot after shutdown

       -h	halt after shutdown

       -o	power-off after shutdown (default)

       -q	quiet mode;  ignores SIGINT signal;  Ctrl-C does't work!

       -v	be verbose

       -m	only shutdown the ninit-part and exit

       -s secs	starting delay

       -t secs	delay between SIGTERM and SIGKILL

       -E prog	execute prog after KILLALL;  must be the last option!

       -T secs	if secs is nonzero shutdown twice ninit part

       -S abcd	skip to shutdown the service abcd


NOTES
       If the flags -m and -E are off then the program starts the service halt
       or reboot depending of the flags -h -o  and -r respectively.

       If the flags -E and -m are on then ninit-shutdown execve(2)s  the  prog
       after shutting down the ninit-part.

       If  the	flag  -E  is  on  and  the  flag -m is off then ninit-shutdown
       execve(2)s the prog after sending SIGTERM and SIGKILL to all processes.

       ninit-shutdown  clears  respawn/cron  flags  on	all services including
       those skipped with -S flag.


ENVIRON
       ninit-shutdown uses the variables NINIT_MEMORY and NINIT_HOME.
