<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>
The command
<B>chvt</B>
<I>N</I>
makes
<I>/dev/ttyN</I>
the foreground terminal.
(The corresponding screen is created if it did not exist yet.
To get rid of unused VTs,
use
<B><A HREF="/cgi-bin/man/man2html?1+deallocvt">deallocvt</A></B>(1).)
The key combination
(Ctrl-)LeftAlt-F<I>N</I>
(with
<I>N</I>
in the range 1-12) usually has a similar effect.
