So, you want to head to bed… time to power down the PC and call it a night. But wait… that download hasn't finished yet. You could stay up and wait for it to finish, but then you will miss out on sleep. You could leave it running, but that's a waste of electricity. Or you could do is turn to Shutter, which gives you a couple of alternative options.

This is a free tool that may not look like anything special, but it has a few tricks up its sleeve that make it well worth checking out. Used at its most basic Shutter could be configured to automatically shut down your computer in an hour's time, or however long you think it's going to take for your download to complete.

This in itself is useful, but there's much more the app. Grab yourself a copy from the website and get it installed.
