MATE-SESSION-SAVE(1)   DragonFly General Commands Manual  MATE-SESSION-SAVE(1)


NAME

       mate-session-save - End or save the current MATE session


SYNOPSIS

       mate-session-save [--logout] [--force-logout] [--logout-dialog]
       [--shutdown-dialog] [--gui] [--kill [--silent]]


DESCRIPTION

       The mate-session-save program can be used from a MATE session to either
       end the current MATE session or save a snapshot of the currently
       running applications (but not both). This session will be later
       restored at your next MATE session.


USAGE

       The --gui option will report errors in dialog boxes instead of printing
       to stderr.

       If called with the --logout option, the current MATE session will be
       ended, unless logging out has been inhibited by an application. The
       --force-logout option can be used to end the session regardless of the
       inhibition state.

       When the --logout-dialog option is given, the standard dialog
       displaying logout options is displayed. When --shutdown-dialog option
       is given, the standard dialog displaying shutdown options is displayed.

       The --kill and --silent options are deprecated. The --kill option is
       equivalent to the --logout-dialog option. If --silent is used with
       --kill, then it will behave as if --logout was used.

       The session is not saved when mate-session-save is called with any of
       the options ending the session.
