gnome-shell-extension-another-window-session-manager

Close and save open windows. And restore saved windows sessions.

Most importantly, it supports both X.org and Wayland!

This project is in early development, but it's basically working now. I'm planing to add some other features.

This extension is based on St(Shell Toolkit) and Shell APIs.
