KSH Has a timeout feature that will log you out after so many seconds
of idle time if your TIMEOUT (or TMOUT, i forget) is set.  I've been
told that doing this trap will prevent this timeout from working.

For ksh-i, that's not the case. I have TMOUT and trap "$HOME/.logout" EXIT
set, and they both work fine.
