+Launch nemo_restore.sh to reopen saved list of windows.
+Restrictions : the script cannot save opened tabs, and won't save a folder whose name is too long. For special folders like Trash, you can replace the window title name in nemo_save.sh if you know the full path. Also, only the currently active pane in two-pane mode is being saved.
