Related to my other question on Windows, how would one go about creating a logoff script for Mac OS X?

Create a logoff script/task for Mac OS X

What do you mean by "logoff script"? If you mean "how to logoff current session from the terminal", then you can do this from any shell script or terminal:
osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to log out'
If by "logoff script" you mean "a script that is executed when one logs off", then I invite you to read this nice post on that topic (with example scripts): http://www.bombich.com/mactips/scripts.html, or see the official documentation here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2420?viewlocale=en_US

the second, yes - a script that runs at logoff, like the old "Shutdown Items" in the System folder on old version of Mac OS :) – warren – 2009-11-04T09:45:55.823
