Adds a ShutdownHook for the JVM. The sub eventName_JVMShutdown() within the specified module will run when the JVM shuts down. This method will not run in the main thread.
JVMGarbageCollectionRequest
Calls System.gc() which requests that the JVM run garbage collection.

relaunchSelf (selfJarNameAsString, argsAsString)
This function creates a temporary batch file, runs the batch file and then shuts down the app. The running batch file pauses for 5 seconds, starts a new instance of this app (selfJarName), and then deletes itself. In short, this function causes the app to restart itself. WARNING: Because it uses a batch file, this function is Windows-only. selfJarName should include the .jar suffix. The args String should be a space-separated list of arguments to pass to the new instance of the app. If you have no arguments, just pass an empty String.
relaunchSelfBatch (BatchFileNameAsString)

RobotSingleStrike (inStringAsString)
Presses and then releases key with 10 ms delay. Only for inString.charAt(0). Use only for alphanumerics and punctuation. This is NOT the preferred method of inputting text. Use RobotPaste if you can.

This sub takes care of the key presses and releases. Make sure the OS supports the meta key before using keycombos that use the meta key. Use RobotSupportsMetaKey() for checking.
RobotSpecialKeyPress (inStringAsString)
For pressing special keys: back, enter, control, meta, shift, alt, delete, tab, escape, windows, capslock, left_arrow, right_arrow, up_arrow, down_arrow Be sure to call ReleaseSpecialKey() soon thereafter. If you use the meta key, make sure the OS supports it with call to RobotSupportsMetaKey().
RobotSpecialKeyRelease (inStringAsString)
for releasing special keys: back, enter, control, meta, shift, alt, delete, tab, escape, windows, capslock, left_arrow, right_arrow, up_arrow, down_arrow
RobotSupportsMetaKeyAsBoolean
Returns true if the operating system supports the meta key. On Macs, the meta key maps to the command key. This will attempt to press the meta key.
RobotType (inStringAsString)
Types the whole inString using a series of SingleStrikes. This is NOT the preferred method of inputting text. Use RobotPaste if you can.
ScreenCaptureAsByteArrayAsByte()
Takes a screenshot of the given rectangle (default is 1920x1200), returns the image in .png format as a byte array so the byte array can be used in Non-UI apps. If the default rectangle is unsatisfactory, make sure to set the desired rectangle using ScreenCurrentRectangleSetAs...().
ScreenCaptureToFile (filenameAsString)
Creates a screen capture of the given rectangle (default is 1920x1200) and saves the image to "filename" relative to .jar's location. The file will be a .png file so make sure "filename" ends in ".png". If the default rectangle is unsatisfactory, make sure to set the desired rectangle using rectangleAs...().

Returns free system physical memory in bytes.
SystemMemoryPhysicalTotalAsLong
Returns total system physical memory in bytes.
SystemNanoTimeAsLong

SystemNewlineCharacterAsString
Returns the System newline character using Java's System.lineSeparator() call.

Opens a web address in the system default browser. Same as fx.ShowExternalDocument() except you can use this in non-UI apps.

Returns the operating system description. Returned String will look like: "Windows 7 Version: 6.1 Arch: amd64"
SystemProcessKillByPID (pidAsString) AsBoolean
Uses the Windows-only taskkill command to kill the process at the pid. PID should be purely numeric. Returns true if it works, false if an exception was caught.
