Comment 9 for bug 113279

The upstream bug has this as a possible closing:

"Sobby 0.4.4 has a new option in the config file called "session" that specifies a session file to load when starting sobby. Sobby will also start if that file does not exist. You may set it to the same value as the "autosave_file" config option to reload a previously saved session before overwriting it. Does this solve this issue for you?"
