from "# If..." to "exit 0"
Your script should actually start with:
#!/bin/bash
# and insert any comments here, like what this script does
Then you want to name it such that you won't accidentally try to use it as a loginhook. My recommendation is "LogoutHook".
You can put the script practically anywhere, but try to think of a place that will be common for all such scripts going forward. We created a folder in the main Library folder for all custom scripting. That is where all of our admin level support staff can find them on any previous or future image builds.
You probably don't want read privileges for other, aka "world readable". After creating your script, from the command line, enter this and hit return:
chmod 770 /path/to/LogoutHook
You probably want to make root or "system" the owner, and maybe assign the admin group full access:
sudo chown root:admin /path/to/LogoutHook
I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong on any of this, but it is working this way for my scripts.

page_util_quote - page character quoting utilities SYNOPSIS
package require page::util::quote ?0.1? package require snit ::page::util::quote::unquote char ::page::util::quote::quote'tcl char ::page::util::quote::quote'tclstr char ::page::util::quote::quote'tclcom char _________________________________________________________________ DESCRIPTION
This package provides a few utility commands to convert characters into various forms. API
::page::util::quote::unquote char A character, as stored in an abstract syntax tree by a PEG processor (See the packages grammar::peg::interpreter, grammar::me, and their relations), i.e. in some quoted form, is converted into the equivalent Tcl character. The character is returned as the result of the command. ::page::util::quote::quote'tcl char This command takes a Tcl character (internal representation) and converts it into a string which is accepted by the Tcl parser, will regenerate the character in question and is 7bit ASCII. The string is returned as the result of this command. ::page::util::quote::quote'tclstr char This command takes a Tcl character (internal representation) and converts it into a string which is accepted by the Tcl parser and will generate a human readable representation of the character in question. The string is returned as the result of this command. The string does not use any unprintable characters. It may use backslash-quoting. High UTF characters are quoted to avoid problems with the still prevalent ascii terminals. It is assumed that the string will be used in a double-quoted environment. ::page::util::quote::quote'tclcom char This command takes a Tcl character (internal representation) and converts it into a string which is accepted by the Tcl parser when used within a Tcl comment. The string is returned as the result of this command. BUGS, IDEAS, FEEDBACK This document, will undoubtedly contain bugs and other problems. Please report such in the category page of the Tcllib SF Trackers [http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=12883]. Please also report any ideas for enhancements you may have. KEYWORDS
