map f7>/ goto_session
# Same as above, but the sessions are listed alphabetically instead of by most recent
map f7>/ goto_session --sort-by=alphabetical
# Browse session files inside a directory and pick one
map f7>p goto_session ~/.local/share/kitty/sessions
# Go to the previously active session (larger negative numbers jump further back in history)
map f7>- goto_session -1
In this manner you can define as many projects/sessions as you like and easily
switch between them with a keypress.
When a directory path is supplied to :ac:`goto_session`, kitty scans it for
files ending in ``.kitty-session``, ``.kitty_session`` or ``.session`` and
presents an interactive list. The ``--sort-by`` option controls the ordering of that list just like it does
for globally known sessions.
You can also close sessions using the :ac:`close_session` action, which closes
all windows in the session with a single keypress.
