     SYNOPSIS
          #include <Dt/Session.h>

          Boolean DtSessionSavePath(Widget widget,
                                    char **savePath,
                                    char **saveFile);

     DESCRIPTION
          The DtSessionSavePath() function returns the pathname to be
          used by an application for saving its state information.
          The information is later used by the application to restore
          its state.

          The widget argument is the application's top level widget.
          The savePath argument is the address of the character string
          to receive the pathname of the state information file to be
          used by the application for storing its state.  The saveFile
          argument is the address of the character string to receive
          the filename of the file to be used by the application for
          storing its state.

     RETURN VALUE
          Upon successful completion, the DtSessionSavePath() function
          returns True; otherwise, it returns False.

     APPLICATION USAGE
          The application should add -session saveFile when it updates
          its WM_COMMAND property.

          The application must use XtFree(3X) to free data returned in
          *savePath and *saveFile.
