SUMMARY
The program below allows you to restart or shut down the Macintosh
from within a QuickBASIC program. For the program to work, the System
file must be Version 4.10 or later. (To obtain the version number,
select the System file and choose Get Info from the File menu.)
Before executing the following portion of code, it is very
important to be sure all files and resources have been closed. If
files and resources are left open when the computer is restarted, the
files may be corrupted.
