EXTENDED DESCRIPTION
   ConsoleKit session properties
     For each session, the following session properties are displayed:

     unix-user		     The user id value associated with the session.

     realname		     The name of the user associated with the session.

     seat		     The ID for the ConsoleKit Seat associated with  the
			     session.

     session-type	     The  ConsoleKit session type.  This value is set by
			     the process that opens the session and will usually
			     be set to the display  protocol  used,  i.e.   x11,
			     wayland, tty, mir, or unspecified.

     session-class	     The ConsoleKit session class.  This value is set by
			     the process that opens the session and will usually
			     be  set  to  user	for  normal sessions or greeter,
			     lock-screen, or background for special purpose ses-
			     sions.

     session-state	     The current state of the ConsoleKit session. It  is
			     managed  by  ConsoleKit  and will either return on-
			     line, active, or closing.

     display-type	     The ConsoleKit display type.  This value is  speci-
			     fied by the "DisplayTemplate" key in the ConsoleKit
			     session  configuration  file  associated  with this
			     session.

     open		     The value is "TRUE" if the  session  is  open,  and
			     "FALSE" otherwise.

     active		     The value is "TRUE" if the session is active on the
			     seat  to  which  it is attached, and "FALSE" other-
			     wise.

     x11-display	     The value of the X11 DISPLAY  environment	variable
			     for this session if one is present.

     x11-display-device      The  value  of the display device that the X11 dis-
			     play for the session is connected to.  If there  is
			     no x11-display set, then this value is undefined.

     display-device	     The display device associated with the session.

     remote-host	     If  the session is not local, the value is the host
			     name associated with the session.	If  the  session
			     is local, the value is empty.

     VTNr		     The  virtual terminal the ConsoleKit session is on,
			     if any.

     is-local		     The value is "TRUE" if the session  is  local,  and
			     "FALSE" if remote.

     on-since		     An  ISO  8601  date-time string that corresponds to
			     the time the session started.

     login-session-id	     The value of the login session ID that the underly-
			     ing system uses to enforce session  boundaries.  If
			     there is no login session ID set then this value is
			     an empty string.

     idle-since-hint	     An  ISO  8601  date-time string that corresponds to
			     the time of the last change of the idle-hint.  This
			     is a hint used to indicate that the session may  be
			     idle.   For  sessions  with  a x11-display set (ie.
			     graphical sessions), it is up to  each  session  to
			     delegate	the  responsibility  for  updating  this
			     value. Typically, the screensaver will set this.

			     However, for non-graphical sessions with a display-
			     device set the Session object itself will	periodi-
			     cally  update  this value based on the activity de-
			     tected on the display-device itself.

			     This should not be considered authoritative.

EXAMPLES
     Example 1: Show running sessions.

     example% ck-list-sessions

     This command would generate output like the following for each session:

     SessionSeat1Local:
	     unix-user = '50'
	     realname = 'GDM Reserved UID'
	     seat = 'Seat1'
	     session-type = 'LoginWindow'
	     display-type = 'Local'
	     open = 'TRUE'
	     active = 'TRUE'
	     x11-display = ':0'
	     x11-display-device = '/dev/console'
	     display-device = '/dev/console'
	     remote-host-name = ''
	     is-local = 'TRUE'
	     on-since = '2009-08-11T06:46:42.941134Z'
	     login-session-id = ''
	     idle-since-hint = ''

     Example 2: Show only the session-id, unix-user,  and  display-type  proper-
     ties.

     example% ck-list-sessions --format="session-id,unix-user,display-type"

     This command would generate output like the following for each session:

     SessionSeat1Local	     50      Local
