wsconscfg tool allows to create, delete and switch
  between virtual terminals on display devices controlled by the wscons terminal
  framework if the underlying display hardware driver supports multiple screens.
  Further it controls the assignment of keyboards to displays. The
  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). In
  keyboard configuration mode, it specifies the
  wskbd(4) device to attach or
  detach. Without further option arguments, a virtual terminal is created with
  implementation specific properties and a default terminal emulation variant
  selected at kernel compile time.
The options are:
-d-F option is applied. Terminals
      used by the operating system console or a graphics program (X server)
      cannot be deleted. With the -k flag, the keyboard
      specified by index will be detached from the wscons
      display. With the -m flag, the multiplexor
      specified by index will be detached from the wscons
      display.-e

    typeTypically, the wsconscfg utility will be
    invoked in system startup by the /etc/rc.d/wscons
    script, controlled by the /etc/wscons.conf
    configuration file.
wsconscfg -t 80x50 -e vt100
  1Configure screen 1 (i.e., the second), it will get the type
    ‘80x50’ and use the VT100 terminal
    emulation. (Note: ‘80x50’ is a screen
    type offered by the vga(4)
    display driver. In this particular case, an 8×8-font must be loaded
    before to make the screen useful. See
    wsfontload(8).)
wsconscfg -kConnect the first unconnected keyboard to the display.
wsconscfg 3Create screen 3.
wsconscfg -d 3Delete screen 3.
wsconscfg -s 2Switch to screen 2.
