The ToolTalk files are found in the /usr/dt/bin, lib, and include/Tt, directories, as well as in /usr/openwin/bin, lib, include/desktop, and man directories. The reason for this is historical. ToolTalk existed before the Common Desktop Environment (CDE) and was shipped with Solaris in the /usr/openwin directory structure. When CDE was released, ToolTalk was visible from the /usr/dt directory structure using symbolic links, but was still actually installed in /usr/openwin. On a Solaris 2.5 or compatible system that has CDE installed, you will find that the ToolTalk files in /usr/dt are symbolic links to /usr/openwin. On a Solaris 2.4 or compatible system with CDE installed, you will find two different complete versions of ToolTalk installed: one in /usr/dt and one in /usr/openwin. However, only the ToolTalk in /usr/dt will work with CDE. Table D–1 describes the files.
