POSIX Shell Menu scripting

Michael Grmek — Thu, 11 Jan 2001 18:26:48 GMT

When exiting a menu script - is there a method
that will allow you to exit from the shell at
the same time you exit from the menu script?

You could try adding in their .profile

exit

Just a thought,

Michael:

Yes, 'exec' your script. When you exit the script, you will be logged-off. This can be done in the $HOME/.profile if you want to launch your menu-script every time the user logs-in and you want them to be logged-off when they leave the menu. Put "exec script_name" as the last .profile entry.
