Dear Scripting colleagues,

I was tackling a problem that was related to loggin in and loggin out, and came across the following observation: if you kill the process called "Windowmanager" it has every semblance of being a similar thing to logging out. You get the blue screen and the login options. I don't know what happens to all the background processes, but what is the difference between no longer bein logged in and being logged out? So, for all practical purposes, it would seem that a shell script that kills "Windowmanager" does the job of logging you out...


Kind regards,

Jan
