Changelog:
----------

v0.4
----
:: Made it actually work.

v0.3
----
:: Removed logoff bang - not needed as already in core.

v0.2
----
:: Changed bang names, now have "bye" prefix.
:: Added bangs and vars to check if Shutdown, Hibernate and Suspend are
available.

v0.1
----
:: Initial Release.

Overview:
---------
ByeWindows is a LiteStep module which adds some bangs for the shutting down,
rebooting, powering off, hibernating, suspending, logging off and locking of
windows. All features should work in Windows 2000 and above. Some features
may work in previous versions but this hasn't been tested.

Bangs:
------

!byeHibernate
Puts Windows into the hibernated state, if hibernation is allowed.

!byeSuspend
Puts Windows into the suspended state, if suspending is allowed.

!byeShutdown
Shuts down Windows if shutting down is allowed.

!byePowerOff
Powers off the computer.

!byeReboot
Reboots the computer.

!byeLockWorkstation
Locks the workstation.

!byeIsHibernateAllowed
Sets the variable "HibernateAllowed". This should be run before checking the
"HibernateAllowed" variable as the state may change.
"HibernateAllowed" will be initially set when the module is loaded.

!byeIsShutdownAllowed
Sets the variable "ShutdownAllowed". This should be run before checking the
"ShutdownAllowed" variable as the state may change.
"ShutdownAllowed" will be initially set when the module is loaded.

!byeIsSuspendAllowed
Sets the variable "SuspendAllowed". This should be run before checking the
"SuspendAllowed" variable as the state may change.
"SuspendAllowed" will be initially set when the module is loaded.

Notes:
------

!byeShutdown and !byePowerOff are similar but have a slight difference. Rather
than try to explain it myself, the following descriptions are taken straight
from the MSDN.

PowerOff
"Shuts down the system and turns off the power. The system must support the
power-off feature."

ShutDown
"Shuts down the system to a point at which it is safe to turn off the power.

Go play Operation Flashpoint
It's from 2001, but it's still the best military sim type game out there, and the community is always pumping out new mods, islands, and addons. Some addons make the graphics look like from a brand new game. I can't run those though :(
My comps suxx and it crashes all the time when I play >_<

i found it in the bargain bin of a small computer store in a back-water town, seriously. got it for 5 bucks. its pretty old but its earlier than Doom. yeah its pretty good, fair few weapons and you get psychic skills as you go on. its a bit corny though, but i think thats the point...i dont think they make it anymore though :(

Then forget my recommendation. With that card you will hardly run any of those games.

you might want to invest in a radeon X800 pro with the money youd use to buy those games first.

I think most of the popular games have already been mentioned....

Yeah, first, buy a new vid card, or be stuck forever playing games at Medium detail.

Heres my list of games, not the newest, but I like them for their gameplay, pretty good gfx too.

Call of Duty
Savage - www.S2games.com

Heres what I've got so far that nobody mentioned, well, WoW might be a pretty good idea too, but then, its MMORPG, it doesn't count as a game :P

Yeah, too bad they sucked at Advertisting the game and nobody plays it anymore, theres like about 3 servers that have people in it, and only 1 mod.
