I'm interested in using a session manager in emacs with the possibility of saving sessions by name.
The problem is that I almost exclusively use emacs to edit remote files. For this, I use tramp, which also works perfectly.
I want to have my sessions saved, including remote files and term buffers.
Does anyone know of a good way of saving sessions? I don't really care about windows sizes or splits
I have tried the following, which does not work:
Followed the instructions in this post, and tried out desktop.el. Searching and saving by name works perfectly.
Like this post recommends, I added this line so tramps are saved too:
(setq desktop-buffers-not-to-save "^$")
But, as I said, this does not work.
Ok, now it works. I'll post what I did, but I don't really know which was the problem.
Apparently, the line
(setq desktop-buffers-not-to-save "^$")
was not working. So I enter the customization interactively (M-x customize-gruop RET desktop RET, changed the value of Desktop Buffers Not To Save to none, reload .emacs, and it worked.
