NAME

save-session - Write session information to session file
session-setup - Configure the data written to a session file

SYNOPSIS

n save-session "session-file"
session-setup

DESCRIPTION

save-session writes out MicroEmacs's current session information into the given session file.

The command read-session(3) can set a default session file in which case the session is automatically written out to this file if an argument of zero is given; the user is not prompted for a file. MicroEmacs automatically tries to write the default session whenever it is exited.

The session-setp command opens a simple dialog to configure the current session. The saving of the kill chain and bookmarks can be extremely useful, but can also greatly increase the size of a session file and the time taken to read and write it.

NOTES

The session information is saved in a ascii format file (see esf(8)). Reference should be made to the notes included in esf(8) as to how the session file may be edited and effected in the same MicroEmacs session.
