About Session Handling in Command-line Mode

The debugger variable $sessiondir is set to the directory in which the debugger saves session files:

$HOME/.idb/sessions/ in command line mode.
$PWD/workspace/sessions/ in GUI mode, where $PWD is the working directory in which the GUI was started.

You cannot change this directory.

To identify this directory, use the following command:

print $sessiondir
