I have done this, and it works... to a certain extent.
That is, when you run shutdown -h now, the system shuts down, and you see
"System halted" blink on the screen and then the power cuts off.
BUT, what this does not let you do is press the power off button, and then
have it invoke shutdown -h now itself. You *can* do this in Win95, and it is
very nice.
I spoke with the developer of the APM subsystem, and he said that we'd have
to reverse engineer what was going on in the Windows machine to do this.
Maybe there's an example in the Win DDK, but our subscription to MSDN ran
out in '96 and we haven't bothered resubscribing. Does anyone have a current
Win DDK?
