WSCONS(9) BSD Kernel Developer's Manual WSCONS(9)
NAME
wscons -- machine-independent console support
DESCRIPTION
The wscons driver provides a machine-independent framework for workstation consoles. It consists of several cooperating modules:
o display adapters (see wsdisplay(9))
o keyboards (see wskbd(9))
o pointers and mice (see wsmouse(9))
o input event multiplexor
o font handling (see wsfont(9))
o terminal emulation (see wsdisplay(9))
The wscons framework replaces the old rcons workstation framework and the various machine-dependent console implementations.
CODE REFERENCES
The wscons subsystem is implemented within the directory sys/dev/wscons.
