The second alias command above acts more like "su" than "login".
(To see what I mean:  set up the alias; ensure that you have a "~/.logout" file;
use the login alias; and then use logout.)  To have it act like "login" you'd
	alias login 'source ~/.logout; exec login \!*'

The first alias above causes the built-in login command of the csh to be used;
the second and third result in direct execution of "/bin/login".  So with the
first alias above you'll still get the csh's
	There are stopped jobs
warning when appropriate; you'll miss the warning with the other aliases.
Keeping the warning was the motive for having the "complicated" alias.
