🌸 DtInfo_Quit 🌸

okay so real quick, this is from the DtInfo_Quit(special file) manual page β€” a special file bestie, we're in the big-kid section of the man pages now πŸ’… don't be intimidated, it's literally just a notice message.

✨ NAME ✨

DtInfo_Quit β€” the little heads-up notice the browser sends out when it exits normally 🫢

πŸŽ€ SYNOPSIS πŸŽ€

DtInfo_Quit
        Class:  TT_NOTICE
        Operation:  DtInfo_Quit
        Address:  TT_PROCEDURE
        Disposition:  TT_DISCARD
        Scope:  TT_SESSION

like, that's the whole vibe check β€” five fields, no arguments, no flags, we love a low-maintenance icon πŸ‘‘

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

So the DtInfo_Quit request is a process-oriented ToolTalk message, and it's specifically for the observers who care about the status of dtinfo and nothing else. Ngl it's giving very "this meeting could have been an email" but in the best way πŸ’Œ

The browser posts this message when it is exited normally. That's the whole point of it β€” it's the little "k bye, I'm leaving on my own terms" text πŸ’€

⚠️ Important caveat bestie, don't skip this: it is not sent for desktop session-wide exit. So if the whole session goes down, this message does not go out. Periodt. That's the distinction, don't get it twisted πŸ™ˆ
