Exit or logout
When I want to close my session I can use exit or logout, and a lot of manuals use both of them indistinctly. So, Is there any difference between exit or logout?? Or are both of them exactly the same command??
I forgot to mention that I am using a RedHat Unix.
Thanks for your help.
Kinai.

DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the xfce4-session-logout command.
The xfce4-session-logout command allows you to programmatically logout from your Xfce session. It requests the session manager to display

--halt Halt without displaing the logout dialog.
--reboot
Reboot without displaying the logout dialog.
--suspend
Suspend without displaying the logout dialog.
--hibernate
