NAME
     ttdt_open - create	a ToolTalk communication endpoint

SYNOPSIS
     #include <Tt/tttk.h>

     char *ttdt_open(int *ttfd,
		     const char	*toolname,
		     const char	*vendor,
		     const char	*version,
		     int sendStarted);

DESCRIPTION
     The ttdt_open() function calls tt_open(3) and tt_fd(3).   It
     associates	 toolname,  vendor  and	 version with the created
     procid, and initializes the new  procid's	default	 contexts
     from  the	process	 environment.	If  sendStarted	 is True,
     ttdt_open() sends a Started notice.

RETURN VALUE
     Upon successful completion, the ttdt_open() function returns
     the  created  procid  in  a  string  that	can be freed with
     tt_free();	otherwise, the ttdt_open()  function  may  return
     any of the	errors returned	by tt_open(3) and tt_fd(3).

     No	errors are  propagated	if  sending  the  Started  notice
     fails.
