19 The command __chvt__ ''N'' makes /dev/tty''N'' the
20 foreground terminal. The corresponding screen is created if
21 it did not exist yet. To get rid of unused VTs, use
22 deallocvt(1).

25 The keymap action `Console_''N''' (usually bound to key
26 combination (Ctrl-)!LeftAlt-F''N'', with ''N'' in the
27 range 1-12, and to !RightAlt-F''N-12'' with ''N'' in
28 the range 13-24) also allows to switch to another VT, but
29 really switches only if it is already allocated. This
30 prevents allocating new VTs with a misplaced
31 keystroke.
