GNOME-SESSION-SELECTOR(1)GNOME-SESSION-SELECTOR(1)NAME
gnome-session-selector - Selects a session to use with gnome-session
SYNOPSIS
gnome-session-selector ([session]|--action [(save|print|load))])
DESCRIPTION
gnome-session-selector can be used from a xsession desktop file to
select a session before gnome-session is run. gnome-session reads and
stores its session in the "${XDG_DATA_HOME}/gnome-session/saved-ses‐
sion" directory. gnome-session-selector works by replacing the saved-
session directory by a symlink to another directory. Since the session
name is used as the directory name, it may not contain '/' characters
or begin with a '.'.
When a session name is specified, gnome-session-selector will create a
symlink to select this session.
When started without arguments or with --action load, gnome-session-
selector will present a dialog that allows to choose one of the exist‐
ing sessions or create a new one.
When started with --action save, gnome-session-selector will present a
dialog that allows to choose a session, or create a new one, then per‐
forms a session save operation.
