I wrote this small program that it could be useful to someone here. The program named ExitShutdownSel.exe has been thought for the pinball cabinet to avoid any unwanted exit to the operative system from PinballX when the keyboard is not installed or not "on hand". As everybody surely know, PinballX has a programmable exit screen with the capability of select whether exit to the operative system or shutdown the system. Usually a virtual pinball cabinet has not the keyboard installed or it has the keyboard hidden inside the cabinet (the one I made, for example, it has a drawer below the cabinet that once opened can be raised and locked on the left side of the cabinet to exposing the keyboard/trackball/USB port to the user). In any case, when the keyboard in not "on hand", erroneously selecting the Exit item from the exit screen could be boring. That because once you did it, the only way to exit and shutdown the system is to install the keyboard or get the keyboard out from the inner of the pinball cabinet. The small program that I attached to this message is a workaround to avoid that boring event. Once ExitShutdownSel.exe is installed, when PinballX is exited by the Exit item using the pinball cabinet start button, the system always shutdowns. But, when PinballX is exited by the Exit item using the Enter key on the keyboard and holding down the Enter key for at least one second, the operative system returns available for maintenance purposes. Inside the Zip file there is also a little pdf document that is intended to explain how to install the program. I hope you enjoy it, have fun with your cabinet. Massimo ExitShutDownSel.zip
