how to get selected session's info

aRmanNM opened this issue · comments

app is working great. thank u. the problem is i am switching between gnome and openbox sessions. for openbox session i need to set gtk3-nocsd environment variables but not for the other one. so how can i get the selected session's info (at least name) to write my conditional statements? (or maybe a better way to do this)

commented

Currently, there is no formal way to get the selected session info.

However, during the execution of the tdmexit script, the /tmp/tdmdefault symlink (or ${CONFDIR}/default if the first one did not exist) points the session which will be executed.

I hope this helps

thanks for the response. i actually needed to fix this real quick so i wrote something fast and dirty. i couldn't find /tmp/tdmdefault but there was another file in that location named like tdm_1234 (the number part changed each time i logged in). i dont know if u meant that one but the index of selected session saved in there each time and i could take that using currentSession=$(cat /tmp/tdm*)
