it's been more years than i can count since i've used either tcsh or FreeBSD,
but if you are trying to detect the current tty (which is what i am assuming
is what is in $tty), you can use ps (the variable '$$' is a reference to the
current shell's pid):
$ ps -o pid,tt | sed -n "s/^$$ //p"
p3
now i don't know what v3 is, but the console ttys are ttyC? on OpenBSD, so
if you want only the first window at the console,
if [[ $(ps -o pid,tt | sed -n "s/^$$ //p") = C0 ]];then
startxfce4 --with-ck-launch
exit
fi
should do the trick. i also assume that 'logout' exits the shell, and thus
logs you out, hence logout -> exit, which will exit the script (or in this
case the shell since it's in the startup script).
