<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:13.0pt;font-family:"Century Gothic","sans-serif"">Is it possible for QGIS to run a (python) script on shutdown? There is a feature on the QGIS issues list about startup scripts (<a href="http://hub.qgis.org/issues/6297">http://hub.qgis.org/issues/6297</a>)
– can shutdown scripts be used in the same way?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:13.0pt;font-family:"Century Gothic","sans-serif""><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:13.0pt;font-family:"Century Gothic","sans-serif"">Say, for example, I have a project in which I am editing a dataset in a spatialite database. At the end of the edit session I save my work and shutdown QGIS. Before
shutdown actually happens a python script/batch file runs which zips the spatialite database and copies it to a remote server location ready for processing by some other software.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
