login shell or not

Hello,

When I start an Xterm, I can quit the window only but with "exit" ( doing "logout" explicitly says "not login shell" ). I am surprised - shouldn't I be ? Because when I start a Terminal session, I can quit the window doing a "logout" ( "exit" do it also ) - but I am not surprised, as I understand in both cases I am running login shells. I was wrong ? how ? and why this difference ?

Cheers.

Francis Derive
