dtpad and dtterm can run either standalone or client/server, using an automatically started server process. In the latter configuration, if the server process dies, that's it, because the clients were simply communicating to it a request to open a new editing or terminal window in a certain way, and perhaps waiting for it to indicate when that window was exited. By default, dtpad runs in client/server mode. Manually starting it with the -standAlone option, or having the X resource dtpad*standAlone: True should make it run in standalone mode; less efficient and perhaps less able to coordinate separate actions, but each one independent and even capable of being run in different locales, font availability permitting. I gather something similar is possible with dtterm, but that doesn't seem to be documented. And it seems that dtfile also can operate client/server or standalone, although the details look a bit different. This message posted from opensolaris.org
