    Communicate, when you output impressive to the console, it first undergoes the accepted the dispensation, and then is fed to the console driver. The console driver imitates a VT100, and parses the input in order to be familiar with VT100 escape sequences (for cursor movement, clear screen, etc.).

    The temperaments that are not part of an escape progression are first transformed into Unicode, using one of four mapping tables if the console was not in UTF-8 mode to start with, then looked up in the table recitation the communication between Unicode values and font positions, and the obtained 8- or 9-bit font indices are then written to video memory, where they cause the display of temperament shapes found in the video card's temperament ROM.

    There are many relieves (called Virtual Consoles or Virtual Terminals, shortened VCs or VTs) that share the same screen. You can use them as autonomous devices, either to run autonomous login sessions, or just to send some output to, perhaps from top, or the tail of the system log or so. See below (Console switching) on how to set them up and switch between them.
