.Dl wsconscfg -t 80x50 -e vt100 1
.Pp
Configure screen 1 (i.e. the second), it will get the type
.Dq 80x50
and use the VT100 terminal emulation. (Note:
.Dq 80x50
is a screen type offered by the
.Xr vga 4
display driver. In this particular case, an 8x8-font must be loaded
before to make the screen useful. See
.Xr wsfontload 8 .)
.Sh BUGS
There should be an easy way to get a list of the screen types available
on a display, and of the emulations supported by the kernel.
