Nice work, Frank. I took a quick look at the man pages. The only 
improvement I'd suggest is that the first sentence of the Description 
for reboot.8 would read better by adding "the user" like so:

Change
"These programs allow to reboot, halt, poweroff, hibernate or suspend 
the system."
to
"These programs allow the user to reboot, halt, poweroff, hibernate or 
suspend the system."

I also noticed that "shutdown -h" acts differently on Linux. :)

Regards,
Anthony
