DESCRIPTION

12       gnome-session-selector   can  be  used  from a xsession desktop file to
13       select a session before gnome-session is run. gnome-session  reads  and
14       stores  its  session  in the "${XDG_DATA_HOME}/gnome-session/saved-ses‐
15       sion" directory.  gnome-session-selector works by replacing the  saved-
16       session  directory by a symlink to another directory. Since the session
17       name is used as the directory name, it may not contain  '/'  characters
18       or begin with a '.'.

21       When  a session name is specified, gnome-session-selector will create a
22       symlink to select this session.
23
24       When started without arguments or with  --action  load,  gnome-session-
25       selector  will present a dialog that allows to choose one of the exist‐
26       ing sessions or create a new one.
27
28       When started with --action save, gnome-session-selector will present  a
29       dialog  that allows to choose a session, or create a new one, then per‐
30       forms a session save operation.
