WSCONS(9)

🌸 NAME 🌸

Okay so this is WSCONS(9), and it's the manual page for wscons — machine-independent console support. That’s the whole assignment bestie: a machine-independent console support framework, no cap. 💅

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

The wscons driver is literally the machine-independent framework for workstation consoles. It’s giving “several cooperating modules” energy, and those modules are:

• 🖥️ display adapters — see wsdisplay(9)
• ⌨️ keyboards — see wskbd(9)
• 🖱️ pointers and mice — see wsmouse(9)
• 🎛️ input event multiplexor
• 🔤 font handling — see wsfont(9)
• 💻 terminal emulation — see wsdisplay(9)

The wscons framework replaces the old rcons workstation framework and the various machine-dependent console implementations. Periodt. 🫶

🎀 CODE REFERENCES 🎀

The wscons subsystem is implemented within the directory sys/dev/wscons. That’s the spot, bestie. 📁✨
