NAME
gnome-session-selector - Selects a session to use with gnome-session
SYNOPSIS
gnome-session-selector [session]
DESCRIPTION
gnome-session-selector can be used from a xsession desktop file to
select a session before gnome-session is run. gnome-session reads and
stores its session in the $XDG_DATA_HOME/gnome-session/saved-session
directory. gnome-session-selector works by replacing the saved-session
directory by a symlink to another directory. Since the session name is
used as the directory name, it may not contain '/' characters or begin
with a '.'.
When a session name is specified, gnome-session-selector will create a
symlink to select this session.
When started without arguments, gnome-session-selector will present a
dialog that allows to choose one of the existing sessions or create a
new one.
