[mythtv-users] adding a 'shutdown button' to myth exit menu

[Dhiraj Gaurh]

Best thing is to keep one button on your remote for shutdown, when that 
button is pressed call shutdown  -h now. I did this two years back so 
I'll have to look into my .lircrc file but it is basically extremely 
simple. You won't be changing anything in the menu with this button. You 
won't see anything on the screen. But if you map the power button on the 
remote to shutdown then it is intuitive I guess. I know you probably 
mapped it to escape, so map something else ! It'll be your secret button.
