Hey I want to make a timer to shut off my computer. I would like it to prompt for an amount of time before it starts to countdown then display the amount of time it has left before shut down. I have no clue how to do this so a few hints would be helpful.

Thanks.


Another option would be using the shell.

man shutdown, for more information.However,
sudo shutdown -h +5

will shutdown the system in 5 minutes and
sudo shutdown -h  now
will shutdown the system  now!
