Hi

I need to execute a stand alone leadwerks app at startup and after quitting the app system should shut-down.

My intention is that the user just only has the capability of turning on the computer, use my app and when finished, the system automatically shut down.

Is there an an easy way of doing this, using a kind of autoexec.bat old dos like file?

If you are looking to only auto load your application, I would look to creating a .desktop file and placing it in you login manager designated area, ie lightdm. One of the most interesting things about GNU/Linux graphic use is: you do not require a desktop manager, or window manager, only xorg engine installed. 

This link should get you started on Ubuntu based distros: https://askubuntu.com/questions/77191/how-can-i-use-lightdm-for-user-defined-sessions
