 * exec tput clear
 * 
 * Typing this in at the pdksh prompt, it logged me out of the system.

I know nothing about pdksh, but the reason why this logs you out is
because it's "exec", and the ksh executable is substituted with the
tput executable, which exits promptly after doing the "clear" command.
Try "exec csh", then "exit", and see where you end up with.

I'll leave the rest to ksh hackers. :)
