# Test programs for wscons
This is a set of test programs for OpenBSD's wscons console driver.
Note that some of these programs do test features that are not committed yet, and thus won't build or run.
They may also work on NetBSD.
## Building
Just type `make`
## Programs
## thotplug
Tests the kqueue hot plug events mechanism. The corresponding kernel code is not present so this test doesn't build or run
## tvtswich
Tests VT switching
## twskbd
Tests the various keyboard input modes
## twsmouse
Tests mouse and other pointer input devices
## twsmux
Tests the multiplexor functions
## wsmouse_type
Reprots on the type of pointer devices available
# LICENSE
All these programs are released with the following license:
