Session Management

GNOME uses the X Session Management Protocol to provide session management to GNOME applications. Session management allows GNOME applications to "save state" when the user exits the system.

  • The X Session Management Client Side API can be downloaded from: ftp://ftp.x.org/pub/R6.4/xc/doc/hardc\opy/SM/SMlib.PS.gz

  • A document describing details of the protocol can be downloaded from: ftp://ftp.x.org/pub/R6.4/xc/doc/hardcopy/SM/xsmp.PS.gz

    GNOME also has some extensions to XSMP.
