ttsession - The ToolTalk message server

DDDDEEEESSSSCCCCRRRRIIIIPPPPTTTTIIIIOOOONNNN
ttttttttsssseeeessssssssiiiioooonnnn is the ToolTalk message server. This background process must
be running before any messages can be sent or received. Each message
server defines a "session".
The message server has no user interface and typically runs in the
background, started either by a user's initialization file or
automatically by any program which needs to send a message. The message
server reacts to two signals. If it receives the _U_S_R_1 signal, it toggles
trace mode on or off (see the -_t option below). If it receives the _U_S_R_2
signal, it rereads the types file.
DDDDiiiiffffffffeeeerrrreeeennnncccceeeessss ffffrrrroooommmm SSSSuuuunnnnSSSSoooofffftttt TTTToooooooollllTTTTaaaallllkkkk::::
The Classing Engine is NOT supported on SGI. By default, the message
server reads the Types Database information from the XDR formatted files
described below.
The _d_e_s authentication option is NOT supported on SGI.
By default, if ToolTalk clients are running in a CASEVision/ClearCase
_v_i_e_w, the ttsession will be started in the view and dedicated only to
processes in the view. This overrides the SunSoft default mechanism. If
the ToolTalk client is not running in a CASEVision/ClearCase view, it
connects to the ttsession in the same manner as in the SunSoft
implementation. See CASEVision/ClearCase for details on what it means to
be in a _v_i_e_w.

----AAAA mmmmaaaaxxxx____aaaaccccttttiiiivvvveeee____mmmmssssggggssss
Specify the maximum number of messages in-progress before a
TT_ERR_OVERFLOW condition is returned. Default is 2000.
----aaaa _l_e_v_e_l
Set the server authentication level. The level must be _u_n_i_x, _x_a_u_t_h,
or _d_e_s.
----cccc [_c_o_m_m_a_n_d]
Starts a process tree session and runs the given command. The
special environment variable _SUN_TT_SESSION will be set to the name
of this session. Any process started with this variable in the
environment will default to being in this session. If command is
omitted the value of $SHELL is used instead. Everything after -c on
the command line is taken as the command to be executed, so -c
should be the last option.

----dddd _d_i_s_p_l_a_y
Directs ttsession to start an X session for the given display.
Normally, ttsession uses the DISPLAY environment variable.
----ssss Silent - don't print any warning messages.
----tttt Turn on trace mode. Tracing is very helpful for seeing how messages
are dispatched and delivered. The output is very voluminous. See
the signals above for how to turn tracing on and off during
execution. Tracing displays the state of a message when it is first
seen by ttsession. The lifetime of the message is then shown by
showing the result of matching the message against type signatures
(dispatch stage) and then showing the result of matching the message
against any registered message patterns (delivery stage). Any
attempt to send the message to a given process is also shown
together with the success of that attempt.
----vvvv Print out the version number and exit.
----hhhh Print help on invoking ttsession and exit.
EEEENNNNVVVVIIIIRRRROOOONNNNMMMMEEEENNNNTTTT
SUN_TTSESSION_CMD if set will be used by all ToolTalk clients as the
command to use for auto-starting ttsession.
