Shutdown on finish

[PhantomGamers]

A feature that I think would be nice for large folders that take a long time to finish compressing.

EDIT: Had originally asked for the log to be written to a file too, but I see that was already requested. Sorry, tired.

Hi, are you asking for the program to shut down or for the OS to shut down?

[PhantomGamers]

The OS, I typically shut down my PC at night and it'd be nice to be able to start compression on a large folder and have the system shut down when it finishes

[Siegfriedmk]

This is actually a nice idea. I agree.

[Iridium-IO]

Not planned at the moment, but it's something I might add once I finish patching up some of the bigger issues :)

+1 Would be very handy imo :)

@ImminentFate Are you taking commits for this feature?

[Iridium-IO]

@SnoutBaron It's on the list of things to add soon :) Here's a sneak peek at what I'm working on first:

[SnoutBaron]

@ImminentFate Oooo nice. Looking forward to that.
Well, I was asking because I have the shutdown feature ready to go. I wasn't sure if you had your own plan in mind.

@SnoutBaron give it a whirl if you want ;) - CompactGUI.zip

As for the shutdown feature, if you want to make a PR / paste the code here go for it! I might have to manually change a few things but it saves me some effort anyway :)

what about add a function just generate some script and then i can add “shutdown /s /t 0” at the EOF,

or use a queue

science it can only proceed one folder.this can help a lot.

may be this should be a new issue?

Sorry to re-open this, but do you think you could also add the option to select auto shutdown once you've already started the compress?

I just assumed that would be the case, and started a huge compression job. Now I wait :P
Like the image :)
