If you use .xsession to start the window manager (E17 I assume!), then you will have a line in it that starts the window manager, looking something like /usr/bin/enlightenment-0.17 Note that there is no "&" after this line, because you don't want to background the window manager! The .xsession script runs when X is started, starts the window manager, and continues running until the window manager exits (you can see this using "ps afx" from a shell when X is running). When you exit the window manager, the above line of .xsession finishes, and X continues to run whatever lines come after it. So there is no need for a separate logout script. Just put whatever you want to run at startup *before* the line that starts the window manager, and put whatever you want to run at logout *after* that line. The old-fashioned way of setting up your X session is actually quite powerful.
