5.4 Saving sessions

This section describes how you can use the Sessions dialog to save a session, schedule regular saving, and manage your saved sessions.

Choose LispWorks > Saved Sessions... to raise the Sessions dialog.

Figure 5.1 The Sessions dialog

In the Saved Sessions tab is a list of known saved sessions. The default session is marked with * . If you select a session (other than LispWorks Release) in the list, you can see details of when and where it was saved in the Details: area.

To save a session from the running image, press the Save Now button, which raises the Save Session dialog (see The Save Session dialog and actual saving).

To launch a session, select it in the list and press the Launch button. This invokes the saved session.

To delete a session, select it in the list and press the Delete button. Note that this does not merely remove it from the list but permanently deletes the session, deleting the actual file (and application bundle on Mac OS X) from the disk.

To make a session be the default saved session, select it in the list and press the Set As Default button. This causes LispWorks images to redirect to this session when they start (see Redirecting images to a Saved Session image).
