This has been chosen since an original VT220 uses F1 through F5 for control purposes. Without the ``full VT220'' mode (i.e., the default mode), F9 through F12 access the first four screens, Alt-F12 rotates. In any configuration, Ctrl-Alt-F access vt. Consistently with the X server (and even Linux?). Major revamp planned for the next pcvt release. Things should be better configurable instead of being hard-coded. -- cheers, J"org joerg_wunsch@uriah.heep.sax.de -- http://www.sax.de/~joerg/ Never trust an operating system you don't have sources for. ;-)
