Weird. When I do :mksession ~\startup.vim a second time, i.e., after having quit vim and restarting, I get a message saying the file exists and to add "!" to overwrite. When I do that, however, the file gets saved as startup.vim! Then on the next source it loads the previous session, not the last one.
