term.clear()
sleep(0)
term.setCursorPos(1,1)
event, p1 = os.pullEvent("key")
print("Press ESC to shutdown")
print("Press any other key to go back to normal")
if p1 == 1 then
write("Shutting Down")
sleep(1)
write(".")
sleep(1)

sleep(1)
os.shutdown()
else
print("Returning to normal")
write("14%")
sleep(1)
term.setCursorPos(1,3)
write("34%")

term.setCursorPos(1,3)
write("97%")
sleep(1)
term.setCursorPos(1,3)
print("Done!")
sleep(2)
term.clear()
sleep(0)
term.setCursorPos(1,1)
shell.run("startup")
end

I made an improved exit program, but there is a weird bug where when I run the program it doesn't show the text till I press one of the keys.

That's simple. The os.pullEvent() command halts all function calls until it receives an event. You will want to have your two print commands BEFORE your os.pullEvent() function call.

You told it to wait for a key:

event, p1 = os.pullEvent("key")

So it will wait for a key />

Oh, thank you!
