+.Ss Overview
+The
+.Nm pcvt
+driver provides a virtual screen system with several additional
+features not available in historic console drivers.
+Besides the ability of handling
+multiple virtual screens,
+the probably most important is an emulation of a wide range
+of DEC VT-220
+.if t \(tm

+.El
+
+.Ss Configuration
+The
+.Nm pcvt
+console driver is currently available for the Intel-based BSD operating
+systems
+.Tn NetBSD/i386
+(release 0.9 or higher),
+and
+.Tn FreeBSD
+(release 1.0-GAMMA or higher) .
+In order to get the appropriate system support, one of the options
+.Em PCVT_NETBSD ,
+or
+.Em PCVT_FREEBSD
+must be defined in the system's config file
+.Pq see Xr config 8 .
+In addition, for the
+.Tn FreeBSD
+and
+.Tn NetBSD
+operating systems, it is necessary to set this option to the operating
+system's version number.
+For
+.Tn FreeBSD
+this version number must be expressed as a 3-digit number.
+E.\& g., if you are running the 1.0 release
+.Pq which is actually version 1.0.2 ,
+you should define
+
+.Em PCVT_FREEBSD = 102
+
+For
+.Em NetBSD
+this version number must be expressed as 9 if you are running NetBSD 0.9
+and anything greater than 9 for NetBSD-current (pre 1.0). It is recommended
+to use (as with
+.Tn FreeBSD )
+100 for
+.Nx 1.0
+and 999 for
+.Tn NetBSD-current.
+E.g., if you are running the
+.Nx 1.0
+release, you should define
+
+.Em PCVT_NETBSD = 100
+
+The
+.Nm pcvt
+driver has been designed to be highly configurable in order to satisfy
+everyone's needs. The preferred way for those configurations is to
+provide appropriate
+.Em options
+lines within the config file, possibly overriding the built-in default
+values. Therefore it is possible to compile several distinct kernels
+with different driver behaviour on a single machine.
+
+The following list gives a short overview of the available configuration
+options. Refer to the file
+.Pa i386/isa/pcvt/pcvt_hdr.h
+in the kernel source tree for detailed documentation.
+
+Note: the following conventions apply to all the Boolean options.
+If an option is given with no value, a value of 1
+.Pq activated
+is substituted. If an option value is given as 0, this options is
+deactivated. Any other value is substituted by 1, too. If an option
+is omitted, a built-in default is assumed.
+
+.Bl -tag -width indent -compact
+
+.It Em PCVT_NSCREENS
+Defines the number of virtual screens.
+.br
+Default: 8
+
+.It Em PCVT_VT220KEYB
+If activated, a keyboard layout resembling a DEC VT200 (TM) is generated.
+If deactivated, a mixture between VT220 and HP is used. See the files
+.Pa Keyboard.VT
+and
+.Pa Keyboard.HP
+in the
+.Nm pcvt
+documentation directory for a full description.
+.br
+Default: off
+
+.It Em PCVT_SCREENSAVER
+Enables the builtin screensaver feature.
+.br
+Default: on
+
+.It Em PCVT_PRETTYSCRNS
+If enabled, a blinking-star screensaver is used. If disabled, the screen
+is simply blanked
+.Pq which might be useful for energy-saving monitors .
+.br
+Default: on
+
+.It Em PCVT_CTRL_ALT_DEL
+If enabled, the key combination
+.Aq Em Ctrl
+.Aq Em Alt
+.Aq Em Del
+invokes a CPU reset.
+.br
+Default: off
+
+.It Em PCVT_USEKBDSEC
+Do NOT override a security lock for the keyboard.
+.br
+Default: on
+
+.It Em PCVT_24LINESDEF
+If enabled, the 25-line modi
+.Po
+VT emulation with 25 lines, and HP emulation with 28 lines
+.Pc
+default to 24 lines only to provide a better compatibility to the
+original DEV VT220 (TM). Thus it should be possible to use the
+terminal information for those terminals without further changes.
+Note that this is a startup option; it is possible to toggle between
+the 24- and 25-lines' display by the
+.Xr scon 1
+utility.
+.br
+Default: off
+
+.It Em PCVT_EMU_MOUSE
+Emulate a three-button mouse via the keypad. Useful for notebooks when
+running XFree86. See
+.Sx Mouse emulation
+below.
+.br
+Default: off
+
+.It Em PCVT_META_ESC
+If enabled, a sequence composed of
+.Aq Em esc ,
+followed by the normal key code is emitted if a key is pressed with the
+.Aq Em Alt
+key modifier. If disabled, then normal key code with the value
+.Em 0x80
+added is sent.
+.br
+Default: off
+
+.El
+
+Note that there are further options available which are mainly used for
+debugging purposes or as a workaround for hardware problems. They are
+found in
+.Pa i386/isa/pcvt/pcvt_hdr.h
+along with their documentation.
+
+.Ss Internal Functions
+The functionality described below may be accessed via
+.Xr ioctl 2
+system calls with a file descriptor opened on a device node
+related to the
+.Nm pcvt
+driver.
+To make use of them, a program should contain the following line:
+
+
+.Dl #include <machine/pcvt_ioctl.h>
+
+Any parameter definitions cited below can be found in that file.
+
+
+.Em Keyboard related functions
+
+Three functions are related to basic keyboard hardware:
+
+.Bl -tag -width 20n -offset indent -compact
+.It KBDRESET
+reset keyboard, set defaults;
+.It KBDGTPMAT
+get current typematic value, parameter is a pointer to int where
+the values is stored to;
+.It KBDSTPMAT
+set current typematic value, similar to above command.
+.El
+
+Symbolic values are available for the appropriate constants.
+To specify the initial typematic delay time, they are
+KBD_TPD250 for 250 ms through
+KBD_TPD1000 for 1000 ms, in steps of 250 ms. The typematic repeat
+rates are
+KBD_TPM300, specifying 30.0 characters per second through
+KBD_TPM20 for 2.0 characters per second. The intermediate values
+are: 30.0, 26.7, 24.0, 21.8, 20.0, 18.5, 17.1, 16.0, 15.0, 13.3,
+12.0, 10.9, 10.0, 9.2, 8.6, 8.0, 7.5, 6.7, 6.0, 5.5, 5.0, 4.6, 4.3,
+4.0, 3.7, 3.3, 3.0, 2.7, 2.5, 2.3, 2.1, 2.0 characters per second.
+
+
+.Bl -tag -width 20n -offset indent -compact
+.It KBDGREPSW
+get key repetition switch, and
+.It KBDSREPSW
+set key repetition switch
+.El
+
+again take a pointer to int as argument. They manipulate the
+drivers internal keyboard repetition flag, possible values are:
+KBD_REPEATOFF or KBD_REPEATON.
+
+
+.Bl -tag -width 20n -offset indent -compact
+.It KBDGLEDS
+get LED state, and
+.It KBDSLEDS
+set LED state manipulate the keyboard indicators, but do not influence
+the drivers idea of lock key state.
+.El
+
+The int where the argument points to
+may have the values
+KBD_SCROLLLOCK, KBD_NUMLOCK, KBD_CAPSLOCK, which may be used in any
+conjunction.
+
+.Bl -tag -width 20n -offset indent -compact
+.It KBDGLOCK
+gets state of SCROLL,NUM,CAPS, and
+.It KBDSLOCK
+sets state of SCROLL,NUM,CAPS + LEDs
+.El
+
+should be used in a same manner to get/set the drivers internal
+LED flags.
+
+
+.Em Keyboard remapping
+
+One important feature of the
+.Nm pcvt
+driver is its ability to overload the built in key definition.
+
+.Bl -tag -width 20n -offset indent -compact
+.It KBDGCKEY
+get current key values,
+.It KBDSCKEY
+set new key assignment values, and
+.It KBDGOKEY
+get original key assignment values
+.El
+
+arrange those functions. The take a pointer to a
+.Em struct kbd_ovlkey
+as argument as described below. In addition,
+
+.Bl -tag -width 20n -offset indent -compact
+.It KBDRMKEY
+removes a key assignment, taking a pointer to an int as argument which
+contains the affected key number;
+.It KBDDEFAULT
+removes all key assignments.
+.El
+.Bd -literal
+struct kbd_ovlkey                /* complete definition of a key */
+{
+    u_short keynum;                      /* the key itself */
+    u_short type;                        /* type of key, see below */
+    u_char  subu;                        /* subtype, ignored on write */
+    char    unshift[KBDMAXOVLKEYSIZE+1]; /* emitted string, unshifted */
+    u_char  subs;                        /* subtype, ignored on write */
+    char    shift[KBDMAXOVLKEYSIZE+1];   /* emitted string, shifted */
+    u_char  subc;                        /* subtype, ignored on write */
+    char    ctrl[KBDMAXOVLKEYSIZE+1];    /* emitted string, control */
+    u_char  suba;                        /* subtype, ignored on write */
+    char    altgr[KBDMAXOVLKEYSIZE+1];   /* emitted string, altgr */
+};
+.Ed
+
+The appropriate values for the
+.Em type
+field are:
+
+.Bl -tag -width 20n -offset indent -compact
+.It KBD_NONE
+no function, key is disabled,
+.It KBD_SHIFT
+keyboard shift,
+.It KBD_META
+alternate shift, sets bit8 to ASCII code,
+.It KBD_NUM
+numeric shift, keypad numeric / application mode,
+.It KBD_CTL
+control code generation,
+.It KBD_CAPS
+caps shift - swaps case of letter,
+.It KBD_ASCII
+ASCII code generating key,
+.It KBD_SCROLL
+stop output,
+.It KBD_FUNC    
+function key,
+.It KBD_KP
+keypad keys,
+.It KBD_BREAK
+ignored,
+.It KBD_ALTGR
+AltGr translation feature,
+.It KBD_SHFTLOCK
+shift lock,
+.It KBD_CURSOR
+cursor keys, and
+.It KBD_RETURN
+.Dq Return
+or
+.Dq Enter
+keys.
+.El
+
+The
+.Em subtype
+field contains one of the values
+
+.Bl -tag -width 20n -offset indent -compact
+.It KBD_SUBT_STR
+key is bound to a string, or
+.It KBD_SUBT_FNC
+key is bound to a function.
+.El
+
+.Em Mouse emulation
+
+The mouse emulator
+.Pq if configured in
+fakes a three-button mouse using the Mouse Systems protocol. The first
+.Nm pcvt
+device node not used by a virtual screen is the mouse device. I.\& e.,
+for the default value of 8 virtual screens,
+.Pa /dev/ttyv0
+through
+.Pa /dev/ttyv7
+would refer to the virtual screens, and
+.Pa /dev/ttyv8
+were the mouse emulator device. The mouse emulation is turned on by
+pressing the
+.Aq Em NumLock
+key. The pointer is moved by the numerical keypad keys, into the
+obvious directions. The pointer is initially moved in single steps,
+and is accelerated after an adjustable time
+.Pq default: 500 ms
+by about 6 times. The mouse buttons are emulated by three normal
+keys, by default the function keys
+.Aq Em \&F1 ,
+.Aq Em \&F2 ,
+and
+.Aq Em \&F3 .
+There are two selectable flavors available: normal and
+.Dq sticky
+buttons. Normal buttons behave as expected.
+.Dq Sticky
+buttons are notified as button-press on the first keypress. They
+.Dq stick
+until the key is pressed again
+.Pq or another button-emulating key instead .
+Button presses and releases are notified to the user by a simple
+.Dq pling ,
+or
+.Dq plong ,
+respectively, generated from the PC's built-in speaker.
+
+The following commands control the emulation.
+
+.Bl -tag -width 20n -offset indent -compact
+.It KBDMOUSEGET
+get the current definitions, and
+.It KBDMOUSESET
+set new definitions.
+.El
+
+Both accept a
+.Li struct mousedefs *
+as the third argument to the ioctl call:
+.Bd -literal
+struct mousedefs {
+    int leftbutton;     /* (PC) scan code for "left button" key     */
+    int middlebutton;   /* (PC) scan code for "mid button" key      */
+    int rightbutton;    /* (PC) scan code for "right button" key    */
+    int stickybuttons;  /* if true, the buttons are "sticky"        */
+    int acceltime;      /* timeout in microseconds to start pointer */
+                        /* movement acceleration                    */
+    /* defaults to: scan(F1), scan(F2), scan(F3), false, 500000     */
+};
+.Ed
+
+
+.Em Downloadable character set interface
+
+EGA and VGA video adaptors provide the capability of downloadable
+software fonts. Since the
+.Sq native character set
+of any IBM-compatible PC video board does not allow the full interpretation
+of DEC multinational character set or ISO Latin-1
+.Pq ISO 8859-1 ,
+this might be very useful for a U**X environment.
+
+.Bl -tag -width 20n -offset indent -compact
+.It VGASETFONTATTR
+set font attr, and
+.It VGAGETFONTATTR
+get font attr
+.El
+
+are used to manipulate the drivers information about a downloaded
+font. The take a pointer to a
+.Em struct vgafontattr
+as argument:
+.Bd -literal
+struct vgafontattr {
+    int character_set;          /* VGA character set */
+    int font_loaded;            /* Mark font loaded or unloaded */
+    int screen_size;            /* Character rows per screen */
+    int character_scanlines;    /* Scanlines per character - 1 */
+    int screen_scanlines;       /* Scanlines per screen - 1 byte */
+};
+.Ed
+
+Each character of each font is to be downloaded with
+
+.Bl -tag -width 20n -offset indent -compact
+.It VGALOADCHAR
+load vga char,
+.El
+
+taking a pointer to
+.Em struct vgaloadchar
+as its argument:
+.Bd -literal
+struct vgaloadchar {
+    int character_set;       /* VGA character set to load into */
+    int character;           /* Character to load */
+    int character_scanlines; /* Scanlines per character */
+    u_char char_table[32];   /* VGA character shape table */
+};
+.Ed
+
+The field
+.Em character_set
+takes the values
+CH_SET0, CH_SET1, CH_SET2, CH_SET3 on EGA's or VGA's. Since VGA's
+might have up to eight simultaneously loaded fonts, they can take
+CH_SET4, CH_SET5, CH_SET6, or CH_SET7, too.
+
+Note that there's a dependence between the font size
+and a possible screen height
+.Pq in character rows ,
+depending on the video adaptor used:
+.Bd -literal
+Screen size (rows) on:          EGA             VGA
+Font size
+
+8 x 8                           43              50

+.Ed
+
+
+.Em General screen manipulation commands
+
+.Bl -tag -width 20n -offset indent -compact
+.It VGACURSOR
+sets cursor shape,
+.El
+
+taking a pointer to the following structure as argument:
+.Bd -literal
+struct cursorshape {
+    int screen_no; /* screen number for which to set,               */
+                   /*  or -1 to set on current active screen        */
+    int start;     /* top scanline, range 0... Character Height - 1 */
+    int end;       /* end scanline, range 0... Character Height - 1 */
+};
+.Ed
+
+.Bl -tag -width 20n -offset indent -compact
+.It VGASETSCREEN
+set screen info, and
+.It VGAGETSCREEN
+get screen info,
+.El
+
+provide an interface to some general driver internal variables
+which might modify the behaviour of the screens,
+or which might simply be used to force the driver to switch
+to one certain screen. Their argument is a pointer to the structure:
+.Bd -literal
+struct screeninfo {
+    int adaptor_type;   /* type of video adaptor installed     */
+                        /* read only, ignored on write (yet!)  */
+    int totalfonts;     /* no of downloadable fonts            */

+.El
+
+.Ss Configuration
+The
+.Nm pcvt
+console driver is currently available for the Intel-based BSD operating
+systems
+.Tn NetBSD/i386
+(release 0.9 or higher),
+and
+.Tn FreeBSD
+(release 1.0-GAMMA or higher) .
+In order to get the appropriate system support, one of the options
+.Em PCVT_NETBSD ,
+or
+.Em PCVT_FREEBSD
+must be defined in the system's config file
+.Pq see Xr config 8 .
+In addition, for the
+.Tn FreeBSD
+and
+.Tn NetBSD
+operating systems, it is necessary to set this option to the operating
+system's version number.
+For
+.Tn FreeBSD
+this version number must be expressed as a 3-digit number.
+E.\& g., if you are running the 1.0 release
+.Pq which is actually version 1.0.2 ,
+you should define
+
+.Em PCVT_FREEBSD = 102
+
+For
+.Em NetBSD
+this version number must be expressed as 9 if you are running NetBSD 0.9
+and anything greater than 9 for NetBSD-current (pre 1.0). It is recommended
+to use (as with
+.Tn FreeBSD )
+100 for
+.Nx 1.0
+and 999 for
+.Tn NetBSD-current.
+E.g., if you are running the
+.Nx 1.0
+release, you should define
+
+.Em PCVT_NETBSD = 100
+
+The
+.Nm pcvt
+driver has been designed to be highly configurable in order to satisfy
+everyone's needs. The preferred way for those configurations is to
+provide appropriate
+.Em options
+lines within the config file, possibly overriding the built-in default
+values. Therefore it is possible to compile several distinct kernels
+with different driver behaviour on a single machine.
+
+The following list gives a short overview of the available configuration
+options. Refer to the file
+.Pa i386/isa/pcvt/pcvt_hdr.h
+in the kernel source tree for detailed documentation.
+
+Note: the following conventions apply to all the Boolean options.
+If an option is given with no value, a value of 1
+.Pq activated
+is substituted. If an option value is given as 0, this options is
+deactivated. Any other value is substituted by 1, too. If an option
+is omitted, a built-in default is assumed.
+
+.Bl -tag -width indent -compact
+
+.It Em PCVT_NSCREENS
+Defines the number of virtual screens.
+.br
+Default: 8
+
+.It Em PCVT_VT220KEYB
+If activated, a keyboard layout resembling a DEC VT200 (TM) is generated.
+If deactivated, a mixture between VT220 and HP is used. See the files
+.Pa Keyboard.VT
+and
+.Pa Keyboard.HP
+in the
+.Nm pcvt
+documentation directory for a full description.
+.br
+Default: off
+
+.It Em PCVT_SCREENSAVER
+Enables the builtin screensaver feature.
+.br
+Default: on
+
+.It Em PCVT_PRETTYSCRNS
+If enabled, a blinking-star screensaver is used. If disabled, the screen
+is simply blanked
+.Pq which might be useful for energy-saving monitors .
+.br
+Default: on
+
+.It Em PCVT_CTRL_ALT_DEL
+If enabled, the key combination
+.Aq Em Ctrl
+.Aq Em Alt
+.Aq Em Del
+invokes a CPU reset.
+.br
+Default: off
+
+.It Em PCVT_USEKBDSEC
+Do NOT override a security lock for the keyboard.
+.br
+Default: on
+
+.It Em PCVT_24LINESDEF
+If enabled, the 25-line modi
+.Po
+VT emulation with 25 lines, and HP emulation with 28 lines
+.Pc
+default to 24 lines only to provide a better compatibility to the
+original DEV VT220 (TM). Thus it should be possible to use the
+terminal information for those terminals without further changes.
+Note that this is a startup option; it is possible to toggle between
+the 24- and 25-lines' display by the
+.Xr scon 1
+utility.
+.br
+Default: off
+
+.It Em PCVT_EMU_MOUSE
+Emulate a three-button mouse via the keypad. Useful for notebooks when
+running XFree86. See
+.Sx Mouse emulation
+below.
+.br
+Default: off
+
+.It Em PCVT_META_ESC
+If enabled, a sequence composed of
+.Aq Em esc ,
+followed by the normal key code is emitted if a key is pressed with the
+.Aq Em Alt
+key modifier. If disabled, then normal key code with the value
+.Em 0x80
+added is sent.
+.br
+Default: off
+
+.El
+
+Note that there are further options available which are mainly used for
+debugging purposes or as a workaround for hardware problems. They are
+found in
+.Pa i386/isa/pcvt/pcvt_hdr.h
+along with their documentation.
+
+.Ss Internal Functions
+The functionality described below may be accessed via
+.Xr ioctl 2
+system calls with a file descriptor opened on a device node
+related to the
+.Nm pcvt
+driver.
+To make use of them, a program should contain the following line:
+
+
+.Dl #include <machine/pcvt_ioctl.h>
+
+Any parameter definitions cited below can be found in that file.
+
+
+.Em Keyboard related functions
+
+Three functions are related to basic keyboard hardware:
+
+.Bl -tag -width 20n -offset indent -compact
+.It KBDRESET
+reset keyboard, set defaults;
+.It KBDGTPMAT
+get current typematic value, parameter is a pointer to int where
+the values is stored to;
+.It KBDSTPMAT
+set current typematic value, similar to above command.
+.El
+
+Symbolic values are available for the appropriate constants.
+To specify the initial typematic delay time, they are
+KBD_TPD250 for 250 ms through
+KBD_TPD1000 for 1000 ms, in steps of 250 ms. The typematic repeat
+rates are
+KBD_TPM300, specifying 30.0 characters per second through
+KBD_TPM20 for 2.0 characters per second. The intermediate values
+are: 30.0, 26.7, 24.0, 21.8, 20.0, 18.5, 17.1, 16.0, 15.0, 13.3,
+12.0, 10.9, 10.0, 9.2, 8.6, 8.0, 7.5, 6.7, 6.0, 5.5, 5.0, 4.6, 4.3,
+4.0, 3.7, 3.3, 3.0, 2.7, 2.5, 2.3, 2.1, 2.0 characters per second.
+
+
+.Bl -tag -width 20n -offset indent -compact
+.It KBDGREPSW
+get key repetition switch, and
+.It KBDSREPSW
+set key repetition switch
+.El
+
+again take a pointer to int as argument. They manipulate the
+drivers internal keyboard repetition flag, possible values are:
+KBD_REPEATOFF or KBD_REPEATON.
+
+
+.Bl -tag -width 20n -offset indent -compact
+.It KBDGLEDS
+get LED state, and
+.It KBDSLEDS
+set LED state manipulate the keyboard indicators, but do not influence
+the drivers idea of lock key state.
+.El
+
+The int where the argument points to
+may have the values
+KBD_SCROLLLOCK, KBD_NUMLOCK, KBD_CAPSLOCK, which may be used in any
+conjunction.
+
+.Bl -tag -width 20n -offset indent -compact
+.It KBDGLOCK
+gets state of SCROLL,NUM,CAPS, and
+.It KBDSLOCK
+sets state of SCROLL,NUM,CAPS + LEDs
+.El
+
+should be used in a same manner to get/set the drivers internal
+LED flags.
+
+
+.Em Keyboard remapping
+
+One important feature of the
+.Nm pcvt
+driver is its ability to overload the built in key definition.
+
+.Bl -tag -width 20n -offset indent -compact
+.It KBDGCKEY
+get current key values,
+.It KBDSCKEY
+set new key assignment values, and
+.It KBDGOKEY
+get original key assignment values
+.El
+
+arrange those functions. The take a pointer to a
+.Em struct kbd_ovlkey
+as argument as described below. In addition,
+
+.Bl -tag -width 20n -offset indent -compact
+.It KBDRMKEY
+removes a key assignment, taking a pointer to an int as argument which
+contains the affected key number;
+.It KBDDEFAULT
+removes all key assignments.
+.El
+.Bd -literal
+struct kbd_ovlkey                /* complete definition of a key */

+.Em Mouse emulation
+
+The mouse emulator
+.Pq if configured in
+fakes a three-button mouse using the Mouse Systems protocol. The first
+.Nm pcvt
+device node not used by a virtual screen is the mouse device. I.\& e.,
+for the default value of 8 virtual screens,
+.Pa /dev/ttyv0
+through
+.Pa /dev/ttyv7
+would refer to the virtual screens, and
+.Pa /dev/ttyv8
+were the mouse emulator device. The mouse emulation is turned on by
+pressing the
+.Aq Em NumLock
+key. The pointer is moved by the numerical keypad keys, into the
+obvious directions. The pointer is initially moved in single steps,
+and is accelerated after an adjustable time
+.Pq default: 500 ms
+by about 6 times. The mouse buttons are emulated by three normal
+keys, by default the function keys
+.Aq Em \&F1 ,
+.Aq Em \&F2 ,
+and
+.Aq Em \&F3 .
+There are two selectable flavors available: normal and
+.Dq sticky
+buttons. Normal buttons behave as expected.
+.Dq Sticky
+buttons are notified as button-press on the first keypress. They
+.Dq stick
+until the key is pressed again
+.Pq or another button-emulating key instead .
+Button presses and releases are notified to the user by a simple
+.Dq pling ,
+or
+.Dq plong ,
+respectively, generated from the PC's built-in speaker.
+
+The following commands control the emulation.
