.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
tool allows to create and delete virtual terminals on display devices
|
|
controlled by the wscons terminal framework if the underlying display hardware
|
|
driver supports multiple screens.
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar index
|
|
argument specifies which virtual terminal is to be configured; the allowed
|
|
numbers are from 0 to an implementation-specified value (currently 7, allowing
|
|
for 8 virtual terminals on a display).
|
|
Without further option arguments, a virtual terminal is created with
|
|
implementation specific properties and a default terminal emulation variant
|
|
selected at kernel compile time.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The options are:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width xxxxxxxxx
|
|
.It Fl f Ar ctldev
|
|
Specify the control device of the wscons display to operate on.
|
|
Default is
|
|
.Pa /dev/ttyEcfg .
|
|
.It Fl d
|
|
Delete the specified terminal. A terminal opened by a program will not be
|
|
deleted unless the
|
|
.Fl F
|
|
option is applied. Terminals used by the operating system console or a
|
|
graphics program (X server) cannot be deleted.
|
|
.It Fl F
|
|
Force deleting of a terminal even if it is in use by a user space program.
|
|
.It Fl t Ar type
|
|
Specify a screen type to use. Screen types refer to display format, colour
|
|
depth and other low-level display properties. Valid
|
|
.Ar type
|
|
arguments are defined by the underlying display device driver.
|
|
.It Fl e Ar emul
|
|
Specify the terminal emulation to use for the virtual terminal. The set of
|
|
available terminal emulations is determined at kernel compile time.
