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_open3 and tt_fd3.  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_open3 and tt_fd3.

  No errors are propagated if sending the Started notice fails.
