(alias: new) Create a new session with name session-name.
The new session is attached to the current terminal unless -d is given. window-name and shell-command are the name of and shell command to execute in the initial window. If -d is used, -x and -y specify the size of the initial window (80 by 24 if not given).
The -A flag makes new-session behave like attach-session if session-name already exists
