💫 NAME 💫

okay so xfce4-session-logout — it logs you out of Xfce. that's it. that's the whole vibe. 🚪✨

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

xfce4-session-logout

no cap, that's the entire synopsis. she's simple like that. 🎀

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so like, this manual page documents the xfce4-session-logout command briefly, bestie. we're not writing a novel here.

what it does: it lets you programmatically log out of your Xfce session. basically it asks the session manager to pull up the logout confirmation screen for you. OR — and this is the fun part — if you hand it one of the command-line options down below, it tells the session manager to just do the thing immediately. no dialog, no asking, no "are you sure", just gone. 💨

🌸 OPTIONS 🌸

xfce4-session-logout takes the following command line options, and honestly? she ate:

  • --logout — logs out. no logout dialog, no confirmation screen, we're just leaving. bye. 👋
  • --halt — halts. no logout dialog shown. 🛑
  • --reboot — reboots. no logout dialog shown. 🔄
  • --suspend — suspends. no logout dialog shown. 😴
  • --hibernate — hibernates. no logout dialog shown. 🐻💤
  • --hybrid-sleep — hybrid sleep. no logout dialog shown. 🧚✨
  • --fast — does a fast shutdown. this one tells the session manager not to save the session, and instead to quit everything quickly. it's giving speedrun energy fr fr. 🔥
  • --help — prints a help screen and exits. very demure, very mindful. 🙈
  • --version — outputs version information and exits. 📜
heads up bestie: every one of those action flags skips the dialog entirely. that's the whole point. iykyk. 💅
