Full Discussion: How to prompt for login on OSX when starting Terminal
Operating Systems OS X (Apple) How to prompt for login on OSX when starting Terminal Post 302482065 by Scott on Monday 20th of December 2010 02:03:55 PM
Old 12-20-2010
To get rid of the "Process Completed" message, from the terminal preferences:

Shell -> When the shell exits -> Close if the shell exited cleanly

For the login prompt:

Shell -> Startup (check "Run command" box) -> Type "login" as the "Run command"

edit: Thread renamed and moved to OS X sub-forum.

NAME

       CPANPLUS::Shell

SYNOPSIS

	   use CPANPLUS::Shell; 	    # load the shell indicated by your
					    # config -- defaults to
					    # CPANPLUS::Shell::Default

	   use CPANPLUS::Shell qw[Classic]  # load CPANPLUS::Shell::Classic;

DESCRIPTION

       This module is the generic loading (and base class) for all "CPANPLUS" shells. Through this module you can load any installed "CPANPLUS"
       shell.

       Just about all the functionality is provided by the shell that you have loaded, and not by this class (which merely functions as a generic
       loading class), so please consult the documentation of your shell of choice.
