restore_target(3) Arcan Lua API restore_target(3) NAME restore_target - Request that the target frameserver session restores from a previously made snapshot. SYNOPSIS bool:exist restore_target( vid:target, string:resource ) restore_target( .B ) restore_target( vid:target, string:resource, number:namespace ) restore_target( .B ) restore_target( vid:target, string:resource, number:namespace, string:de- scription ) DESCRIPTION Open resource from the APPL_STATE_RESOURCE and send to target requesting that it restores its state from the resource. It returns true of the re- source was found and sent successfully. If another namespace is provided from the normal set of read- resources, It will be opened read only and sent as a binary chunk. On a pasteboard this action is interpreted as a 'paste' if there is ongoing mouse-drag action on the parent segment, it will be interpreted as a drop. On a segment that announced bchunkstate it will be interpreted as an open operation. If a description is provided, a short (~60ch) text type descriptor of the data can be amended. The conven- tion is to treat this as a simplified MIME - type, with the application/ prefix being the default (and can thus be omitted). NOTES 1 The namespace is one of the set: SHARED_RESOURCE , APPL_RESOURCE , APPL_TEMP_RESOURCE 2 It is possible that the target can re-open the descriptor in a write- mode depending on operating system and creative use of primi- tives. targetcontrol August 2026 restore_target(3)
