Rephrase options

hi!

Experimented with the options and found that at some places, some misinterpretation is possible. Suggest to rephrase the following options:

1. Minimize when program starts
   This is confusing because shutter program is already running!
   Change this to 'Minimize when the START button is pressed"

2. Start events when program starts.
    This statement is not clear on two counts:
    First, does it mean when START button is pressed (as above)?
    Second, what happens when this option is unticked?
    The events are external, so the program cannot control them!
    in case of some events (e.g. "on time") this option does not make any sense at all.
    Or does it apply only to events such as countdown?
    Then change it to "monitor for event only after START is pressed"

3. Restart events after actions have been triggered.
    Better to rephrase this as "wait for next event (re-arm) after action is triggered"
    Or simply rename it as "repeat mode"

4. Close program after action is triggered.
    But multiple instances of Shutter can be running at the same time,
    why should they be closed?
    So this option should be changed to say "close the instance after action is triggered."

Thanks!
