     dtcreate - The TED Action and Datatype creation client.

SYNOPSIS
     dtcreate [<filename>]

DESCRIPTION
     The CreateAction client is used to create actions and  data-
     types  to	integrate an application into the TED.	CreateAc-
     tion provides the most commonly needed  functions	including
     the  creation of actions for an application, creation of the
     associated datatypes for the application's data  files,  and
     the  ability to specify the Open and Print actions for those
     datatypes. The output from this tool is a actions and  data-
     types    definition    file    placed   within   the   users
     $HOME/.dt/types directory and an action file that is  placed
     in the users $HOME directory. CreateAction also provides the
     ability to edit a action and datatypes definition file  that
     was created using this tool.
