\I use 'su' to access an account that runs csh.  I want the '.logout' file to

\        set ignoreeof
\        alias exit 'source ~/.logout; \exit'
\It forces me to use exit to exit.  Typing exit sources ~/.logout, but then says

	alias	exit	'source ~/.logout; unalias exit; eval \exit'

...or just use `su -' to obtain a full login shell.
