Yes, we should so soemthing like this. Note that there is another way to quit LyX: 3. Something bad happens, like a segfault or LyX is killed manually (emergency exit). This is not the same as 2., because in 2. the OS sends a "save session" signal before LyX is killed hardly. We should take a safe approach and not attempt to save any session info in case 3, only the open documents as it is now. Georg
