Taking note of this idea:

  • Sometimes you need users to reboot outside the kind of time based windows Renew is using.
  • What if we add a flag by using something like sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.secondsonconsulting.renew.plist "RequireRestart" -int $(date +%s)
  • This would require admin rights to configure, but non-admins should be able to read
  • Renew could look for this flag, and if the last startup time is less than the date in that file, could have a special kind of "you need to restart" window appear.

Do we have to require a specific Title/Message/Icon key for this "ForceRestart" window? If those values aren't set, do we use default messaging? (that may mean new translations for non-english languages)
