I've been interested first in this session restoring thing because I needed to
have my Okular documents restored.
At the present, I have everything restored, systematically, save Konsole, so I
only have to memorise what directory I was in, which is not too hard.
Everything is: Okular, Dolphin, Kmail, Konversation, Chromium...
Thanks for your feedback,
Chris
(DIY session management for Okular:
find ~/.kde/share/apps/okular/docdata/ -cmin -100 -type f -print0|xargs -0 cat|
grep '<documentInfo'|cut -d\" -f2|tr '\n' '\0'|xargs -0 -n1 echo
Okular is keeping very good track of what it's doing, and I'm very *thankful*
for that, and I hope it will keep storing these data in plain text format in
handy location.
One can't count on "fuser" to know what documents are used by Okular, because
I guess that if the document is not in pdf format, it is converted to this in
some temporary file that I haven't been able to find, and the original file is
not listed by fuser.)
