pueue-shutdown: Shutdown the daemon without a service manager.
$ pueue shutdown
try on your machine

The command "pueue shutdown" is used to gracefully stop the pueue daemon, which manages and controls the execution of tasks in a queue.

When you execute "pueue shutdown", it sends a signal to the pueue daemon to initiate the shutdown process. The daemon will then stop all running tasks and prevent any new tasks from starting. It will also save the state of the queue, including the order and status of the tasks.

This command is useful when you want to stop the pueue daemon for maintenance or if you need to restart it with a fresh state. By shutting down the daemon gracefully, it ensures that all running tasks have a chance to complete before stopping.
