6 mate-session-save - End or save the current MATE session
7
9 mate-session-save [--logout] [--force-logout] [--logout-dialog]
10 [--shutdown-dialog] [--gui] [--kill [--silent]]
11
13 The mate-session-save program can be used from a MATE session to either
14 end the current MATE session or save a snapshot of the currently run‐
15 ning applications (but not both). This session will be later restored
16 at your next MATE session.
17
19 The --gui option will report errors in dialog boxes instead of printing
20 to stderr.
21
22 If called with the --logout option, the current MATE session will be
23 ended, unless logging out has been inhibited by an application. The
24 --force-logout option can be used to end the session regardless of the
25 inhibition state.
26
27 When the --logout-dialog option is given, the standard dialog display‐
28 ing logout options is displayed. When --shutdown-dialog option is
29 given, the standard dialog displaying shutdown options is displayed.
30
31 The --kill and --silent options are deprecated. The --kill option is
32 equivalent to the --logout-dialog option. If --silent is used with
33 --kill, then it will behave as if --logout was used.
34
35 The session is not saved when mate-session-save is called with any of
36 the options ending the session.
