Timed Shutdown: Gshutdown

I recently found a nice GUI option for shutdown command - gshutdown.

Though I still prefer the elegant command line option, the GUI feature does make it more usable.

It is available through package manager in ubuntu 9.10.

sudo apt-get install gshutdown

You can add it to your panel(from Applications > Accessories) and run it as root.
The below image are my settings from its icon properties:



Its auto detect features did not work for me so I manually defined commands
for shutdown and reboot.

My custom command for shutdown is as below:
