+== NAME
+
+ctrlaltdel - set the function of the Ctrl-Alt-Del combination
+
+== SYNOPSIS
+
+*ctrlaltdel* *hard*|*soft*
+
+== DESCRIPTION
+
+Based on examination of the _linux/kernel/reboot.c_ code, it is clear that there are two supported functions that the <Ctrl-Alt-Del> sequence can perform.
+
+*hard*::
+Immediately reboot the computer without calling *sync*(2) and without any other preparation. This is the default.
+
+*soft*::
+Make the kernel send the *SIGINT* (interrupt) signal to the *init* process (this is always the process with PID 1). If this option is used, the *init*(8) program must support this feature. Since there are now several *init*(8) programs in the Linux community, please consult the documentation for the version that you are currently using.
+
+When the command is run without any argument, it will display the current setting.
+
+The function of *ctrlaltdel* is usually set in the _/etc/rc.local_ file.
