-1. What is wmShutdown?
 
-	wmShutdown is a Window Maker dock application that allows you to shutdown or reboot your machine just by clickig a button on your desktop.
-	It's useful just for desktop machines, so there's no need to keep typing shutdown now -h every time you have to go away for some reason.
+1. What is wmshutdown?
+
+	wmshutdown is a Window Maker dock application that allows you to
+	shut down or reboot your machine just by clicking a button on your
+	desktop.  It's useful just for desktop machines, so there's no need to
+	keep typing shutdown now -h every time you have to go away for some

 	I'd be thankful for any fixes or comments about it.
 
 2. Security issues
 
-	As we have to shutdown a machine as a single user, there are some trick that must be remembered here.
-
-	-There are two binaries:
-		wmshutdown: The dock itself, because GTK apps can't be suid
-		wmshutdown-run: suid program called by wmShutdown just to call /sbin/shutdown
-
-	As this was created for workstations, probably there's not much to be afraid.
+   	Prior to version 1.1, wmshutdown used a setuid program (Shutdown or
+      	wmshutdown-run) to actually shut down the computer, introducing
+	potential security risks.  Beginning in version 1.1, wmshutdown uses
+	logind instead.
 
 3. Install/Uninstall
 
-	tar -zxvf wmshutdown-1.0.tar.gz
-	cd wmshutdown-1.0
 	./configure
 	make
 	make install [as root]
