View Full Version : [ubuntu] Desktop workspace sessions (Am I crazy? lol)

Hi,
I use my Ubuntu laptop for many things as do you guys. Ex: studying languages, programming, networking. When doing one of those tasks, I used to open many applications and then my workspace(s) gets fulfilled with many windows. However, I'm a bit lazy, so when I switch from one task to another (e.g., programming to networking) I just let the programming applications open and start using the networking applications. This, of course, starves my laptop resources in the long term and makes my Ubuntu run slow. My question is: Is there any tool that takes some kind of "snapshot" of your current session (opened applications) and save it? One snapshot would be my "languages" session. Once the session is saved, the applications are automatically closed and you could start working with a other set of applications in another task (e.g. programming). One could later resume one of the saved sessions.
Thanks for your time,
Sandor :)

googling found nothing helpful
so i'm not sure


if you have to ask if your crazy, you are
if you claim to be crazy, you are
if you dont mention being crazy, your still crazy

i like to think we're all crazy, just how much and in what way

I also googled without success. I guess this could be an idea for a new challenging project...
