 ===== Overview of Session Managers ===== ===== Overview of Session Managers =====
  
-This is a brief synopsis of the most well-known session managers available for Linux.+=== GUI Session Managers ===
  
 +These are some of the most well-known session managers available for Linux, in order of historical appearance.
  
-==== LASH ====+  * [[apps:categories:lash]] (lash functionality is superseded by ladish which is fork of lash)  
 +  * [[apps/all/ladish]] with or without [[apps:all:Claudia]] 
 +  * [[apps:categories:nsm]] 
 +  * [[apps/all/raysession]] 
 +  * [[apps:categories:jack_session]] (deprecated)
  
-[[apps:all:lash]]+=== Session Management Using the Command Line ===
  
-==== JACK Session ==== +Quite a few folks are using scripts with tools developed for this purpose.
- +
-[[apps:categories:jack_session]] +
- +
-==== LADISH (LADI Session Handler) ==== +
- +
-  * Fully compatible with JACK apps that have built-in support for LADISH, JACK Session or LASH +
-  * Not compatible with apps that only support Non Session Manager +
-  * Limited compatibility with apps without session manager support: +
-    * Some apps are programmed to save their current state when they receive the “SIGUSR1” Unix signal, and LADISH is able to send this signal to such apps. On receiving this signal, apps may then open a save file dialogue or save their state to a default file location. The user may need to load this state file manually after a session is restored +
-    * For apps which do not respond to the SIGUSR1 signal, LADISH is only able to restore their JACK connections +
-  * GUI frontend: Gladish, Claudia +
-  * Saving a session will save the state of all apps (except for those that cannot be prompted, one way or another, to save their state) plus the JACK connections of ALL apps +
-  * Opening a session will automatically launch all apps, restoring their state (if possible) plus their JACK connections +
-  * Apps which support LADISH, JACK Session or LASH can be told to save/load their state to/from a specific location +
-  * First released in 2009. Currently in active development +
- +
- +
-  * Supported apps: http://apps.linuxaudio.org/apps/all/ladish +
-  * Website: http://ladish.org/ +
-  * Manual: http://ladish.org/wiki/tutorial +

-==== Non Session Manager ==== +
- +
-[[apps/categories/nsm|Non Session Manager]] +
- +
- +
-==== Other Session Managers ==== +
- +
-There are other session managers available for Linux.  [[http://aj-snapshot.sourceforge.net/|aj-snapshot]] is a command-line tool and background service which can serve as the foundation for a complete semi-manual session management system. One such implementation is documented [[http://lsn.ponderworthy.com/doku.php/robust_session_management|here]].  Another command-line session manager framework is [[http://chino.tuxfamily.org/|Chino]].+
