# Very simple session manager for uzbl.  When called with "endsession" as the
# argument, it'lla empty the sessionfile, look for fifos in $fifodir and
# instruct each of them to store their current url in $sessionfile and
# terminate themselves.  Run with "launch" as the argument and an instance of
# uzbl will be launched for each stored url.  "endinstance" is used internally
# and doesn't need to be called manually at any point.
