logout script

[chetana07]

Is there any script that run at the time of logout in HP-UX 11.11i?

[Ivan Krastev]

Use .logout file in $HOME directory.

>Ivan: Use .logout file in $HOME directory.

The .logout file is only special to the scummy C shell. If you read Ivan's link carefully, the trick is in the trap command:
trap "$HOME/.logout" 0

[Ralph Grothe · Accepted solution]

In non-C shells simply setup a trap for SIGEXIT like
e.g.
trap 'echo bye $LOGNAME' EXIT

put in your .profile

Oops, the message would disappear too quickly to be readable, so append a ";sleep 3" for instane ;-)
