Do you think you would be able to generate some text to add to the i18l section of the handbook with your findings about vt(4), and submit it in a bug report? You could initially just submit this as plain text, or even better if you wanted to go the next step, as a diff to the handbook source. https://svnweb.freebsd.org/doc/head/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/l10n/ Instructions on how to submit improvements to the handbook are described in French here: https://www.freebsd.org/doc/fr_FR.ISO8859-1/books/fdp-primer/ Regards, Ben --=20 -- From: Benjamin Woods woodsb02@gmail.com
