NAME

       mate-session-save - End or save the current MATE session

SYNOPSIS

       mate-session-save  [--logout]  [--force-logout]  [--logout-dialog]  [--shutdown-dialog]  [--gui]  [--kill
       [--silent]]

DESCRIPTION

       The mate-session-save program can be used from a MATE session to either end the current MATE  session  or
       save a snapshot of the currently running applications (but not both). This session will be later restored
       at your next MATE session.

USAGE

       The --gui option will report errors in dialog boxes instead of printing to stderr.

       If called with the --logout option, the current MATE session will be ended, unless logging out  has  been
       inhibited  by  an application. The --force-logout option can be used to end the session regardless of the
       inhibition state.

       When the --logout-dialog option is given, the standard dialog displaying  logout  options  is  displayed.
       When --shutdown-dialog option is given, the standard dialog displaying shutdown options is displayed.

       The  --kill  and  --silent options are deprecated. The --kill option is equivalent to the --logout-dialog
       option. If --silent is used with --kill, then it will behave as if --logout was used.

       The session is not saved when mate-session-save is called with any of the options ending the session.
