Don't you have to start Leo with --session-restore, for the session file to 
be loaded? And possibly --session-save, for your sessions to be saved when 
you exit Leo?

FWIW below is my ~/.leo/leo.session. The name of one file slightly elided 
with X's, but you get the idea. I have three files open in this session...

$ more 
~/.leo/leo.session
