Disabling the setenv command [message #1497]

Is there a way to disable built-in IDL commands like setenv, cd, etc.? I am
trying to create a secure login shell but still allow users to access IDL.
The problem is that with the setenv, the user can redefine the shell and
side-step any security that I've put in place.

Also, I'm also gettin segmentation faults when I use certain combinations
of widgets. Has anyone else seen this as well? I think it's a bug, but I'm
not 100% positive.

In case it matters, I am running IDL v3.1.1 on a DEC Alpha.

Thank you,
