The command __chvt__ ''N'' makes /dev/tty''N'' the |

| |
|
21 |
it did not exist yet. To get rid of unused VTs, use |

combination (Ctrl-)!LeftAlt-F''N'', with ''N'' in the |

range 1-12, and to !RightAlt-F''N-12'' with ''N'' in |

the range 13-24) also allows to switch to another VT, but |
| |
|
29 |
really switches only if it is already allocated. This |
| |

prevents allocating new VTs with a misplaced |
| |

keystroke. |
