Summary : X Session Management library
Description :
The X Session Management Protocol provides a uniform mechanism for
users to save and restore their sessions. A session is a group of X
clients (programs), each of which has a particular state. The session
is controlled by a network service called the session manager, which
issues commands to its clients on behalf of the user. These commands
may cause clients to save their state or to terminate. It is expected
that the client will save its state in such a way that the client can
be restarted at a later time and resume its operation as if it had
never been terminated.
