Message-ID: <1991Apr13.040002.13291@cunixf.cc.columbia.edu> Sender: usenet@cunixf.cc.columbia.edu (The Network News) Nntp-Posting-Host: cunixa.cc.columbia.edu Reply-To: das15@cunixa.cc.columbia.edu (Douglas A Scott) Organization: Columbia University Distribution: usa Date: Sat, 13 Apr 1991 04:00:02 GMT I have some programs that will give me grief if I do not explicitly kill them off upon logging out. Is there any way to attach some kind of checking that would be done before the logout is completed? If the WM reads the .logout file (not likely, I guess) I could do it there. Any suggestions? ___________________________________________________________________________ Douglas Scott zardoz!doug%woof.columbia.edu
