Subject: syscons-1.3 Date: Sat, 29 Jan 94 23:33:50 MET But here is the (hopefully) final syscons-1.3.... .... I've changed sgetc so it works as the pccons parallel (it now uses a scgetc internally). [ There were a couple changes that Bruce Evans sent me that were applied to this version along with some changes that S'ren didn't incorporate into the final version. There will be only minor changes if anything from this version to his final release. ]

.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
||
Access to the
|
||
.Ar virtual consoles
|
||
are obtained through the device files
|
||
ttyv0 - ttyvb in /dev.
|
||
Each of these files correspond to a seperate
|
||
virtual console.
|
||
All virtual console devices can be open at once, but only one is
|
||
active at a time. The active virtual console "owns" the keyboard and
|
||
display screen.
|
||
.Pp
|
||
Output to a virtual console that not currently is on the display is
|
||
saved in a buffer that holds a "screenfull" (normally 25) lines.
|
||
Any output written to
|
||
.Ar /dev/console
|
||
(the original console device) is echoed to /dev/ttyv0.
|
||
.Pp
|
||
To switch between the virtual consoles one uses the sequence
|
||
.Ar ALT+Fn
|
||
, which means hold down ALT and press one of the function keys. The
|
||
virtual console with the same number as the function key is then
|
||
selected as the current virtual console, and given exclusive use of
|
||
the keyboard and display. This switch sequence can be changed via
|
||
the keyboard mapping ioctl call (see keyboard.4)
|
||
.Pp
|
||
The number of virtual consoles is changeable in the system config
|
||
file, and need recompilation of the kernel to take any effect. The
|
||
default is 12.
|
||
|
||
The console allows entering values that are not physically
|
||
present on the keyboard via a special keysequence.
|
||
To use this facility press and hold down ALT,
|
||
then enter a decimal number from 0-255 via the numerical keypad, then
|
||
release ALT. The entered value is then used as the ASCII value for one
|
||
character. This way it is possible to enter any ASCII value.
|
||
|
||
The console understands a subset of the ANSI x3.64 character
|
||
sequences. For compatibility with the old pccons, the PC3 character
|
||
sequences is also supported.
