POFFD(8)

NAME
poffd - x68k shutdown daemon

SYNOPSIS
poffd [shutdown-program]

DESCRIPTION
poffd looks at the power switch of x68k. When the switch is turned off, poffd executes shutdown-program (using /bin/sh -c).

If the system is started by x68k's RTC timer, shutdown-program is executed when the system's shut down time (predefined using other utility, SX-Window Control Panel and rtcalarm(8) for example) arrives.

The argument shutdown-program may contain the character `%'. It is substituted with a number which indicates the way how the system was started:
0   Front power switch
1   External (I/O slot) power signal
2   RTC alarm

This is useful when choosing the shutdown message.

If the argument shutdown-program is omitted, ‘/sbin/shutdown -r +1’ is executed instead.
