i like White chocolate with almonds from ALDI, vangelis, hong kong Pop Music from the 80s and early 90s, star trek the classic series, blue led lights at night. I dislike social pressure, being not as intelligent and good looking as i wished to be, the headache and Tinnitus i suffer from 24/7. I am a White male from Germany, suffering from agoraphobia, bound to a Limit of locomotion within a radius of about 1 km , but it depends on specific environmental Features. i am a single, i have a few friends, but i am alone most of the time.

In order to log out from a session in xfce4, I usually click onto the icon in the upper left corner, click onto a further icon captured as log out, thereupon a window opens, where I can choose between:
- log-out
- restart
- shutdown
- suspend
I click onto log-out and I am at the log-in shell.

Is there a way to get into this log-in shell without the clicking onto icons and buttons but by typing some commands inside the command line?
