+==== Cracking session ====
+Cracking can sometimes take a very long time and it is sometimes necessary to turn off the computer or put it to sleep for a while. In order to handle this kind of situation, a new set of option has been created.
+It will create and/or update a session file saving the current status of the cracking (every 10 minutes) as well as all the options used, wordlists and capture files used. Multiple wordlists can be used and it works with WEP and WPA.
+  aircrack-ng --new-session current.session -w password.lst,english.txt wpa-01.cap
+In order to restore the session, use -''''-restore-session:
+  aircrack-ng --restore-session current.session
+It will keep updating //current.session// every 10 minutes.
+Limitations:
+  * The wordlist must be files. For now, they cannot be //stdin// or [[airolib-ng]] databases
+  * Session has to be restored from the same directory as when first using -''''-new-session
+  * No new options can be added when restoring session
