-- QuitOthers 1.0
-- The script quits all processes exept Finder and then shuts down the computer.
-- Written by Tuomas Rosberg 3. Feb 1999.
-- This script helped me to avoid shut down freezes in my system
-- (UMAX Pulsar 200, Mac OS 8.5.1 with MS IE, CD-ROM Toolkit 3.0.2, Twin Turbo 4.0.6, Iomega Software 1.0 and Sleeper 3)
-- Note: The freezes are gone after a fresh installation, and deleting the following parts of
-- software: Twin Turbo Upgrade, Twin Turbo M8 Upgrade and MS Internet Explorer.
