  24 .SH DESCRIPTION
  25 The
  26 .B xshutdown
  27 program pops up a pretty GTK confirmation box asking the user whether he
  28 (or she) wants to shutdown the current session.  If so, it sends a
  29 message to a waiting
  30 .B xwait
  31 process, by setting a named property on the X root window to a particular
  32 value.
