[Sunhelp] How to disable tcsh autologout

Well, it drives me nuts as well, but I tend to not worry so much about it.
The method that I use when I need to stay logged in for a long process is to
set the autologout var to 0, like so:  'set autologout=0'.  You should be
able to set this in ~/.tcshrc, or wherever else you want, but I can't even
make updates to "PATH" from any shell on my Solaris box, so don't quote me
on that.
