NAME
  tt_pattern_register - register a pattern with the ToolTalk service

SYNOPSIS
  #include <tt_c.h>
  Tt_status tt_pattern_register(Tt_pattern p);

DESCRIPTION
  The tt_pattern_register function registers a pattern with the ToolTalk
  service.

  When the process is registered, it will start receiving messages that match
  the specified pattern.  Once a pattern is registered, no further changes
  can be made in the pattern.

  When the process joins a session or file, the ToolTalk service updates the
  file and session field of its registered patterns.

  The p argument is a unique handle for a message pattern.  This handle is
  returned after tt_pattern_create(3) is called.

RETURN VALUE
  Upon successful completion, the tt_pattern_register function returns the
  status of the operation as one of the following Tt_status values:

  TT_OK
    The operation completed successfully.

  TT_ERR_NOMP
    The ttsession(1) process is not running and the ToolTalk service cannot
    restart it.

  TT_ERR_POINTER
    The pointer passed does not point to an object of the correct type for
    this operation.

  TT_ERR_PROCID
    The specified process identifier is out of date or invalid.
