     ott - FACE object architecture information

DDDDEEEESSSSCCCCRRRRIIIIPPPPTTTTIIIIOOOONNNN
     The FACE object architecture stores information about
     object-types in an ASCII file named ....ooootttttttt (object type table)
     that is contained in each directory.  This file describes
     all of the objects in that directory.  Each line of the ....ooootttttttt
     file contains information about one object in pipe-separated
     fields.  The fields are (in order):

     _n_a_m_e              the name of the actual TX System file.

     _d_n_a_m_e             the name that should be displayed to the
                       user, or a dot if it is the same as the
                       name of the file.

     _d_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n       the description of the object, or a dot if
                       the description is the default (the same
                       as object-type).

     _o_b_j_e_c_t-_t_y_p_e       the FACE internal object type name.

     _f_l_a_g_s             object specific flags.

     _m_o_d _t_i_m_e          the time that FACE last modified the
                       object.  The time is given as number of
                       seconds since 1/1/1970, and is in hexade-
                       cimal notation.

     _o_b_j_e_c_t _i_n_f_o_r_m_a_t_i_o_n
                       an optional field, contains a set of
                       semi-colon separated _n_a_m_e====_v_a_l_u_e fields
                       that can be used by FACE to store any
                       other information necessary to describe
                       this object.
