In VMS through V5.3 there is no way to guarantee execution of a "LOGOUT.COM",
since a user can always bypass it (for instance, with STOP/ID=0).  For
unsophisticated (or cooperative) users you can use SYLOGIN.COM to define a
symbol that runs a systemwide command procedure when the user enters "LOGOUT",
e.g.,

	$ LOGO*UT := @PUBLIC:LOGOUT.COM

But what problem are you trying to solve with this technique?  Whatever it is,
you're more likely to get specific help if you ask about the specific problem.
