Sorry dude, my mistake.  This restarts windows and doesn't reboot.  If
you change the configuration to reboot it asks if you wish to exit.  I
am real tired, but I really do think someone has made a util for this
that works in a dos box and in batch files.  They make a tray util for
rebooting, but I don't know if this program works from a batch.  I am
almost positive someone has written a program that works the same as
reboot.com.  Later........
