6386 V.3.2 virtual terminal switch remapping?

[Larry Campbell]

The manual entry is incomplete;  you have to scrutinize kd.h carefully.
I'm glad Jim's posting (Hi, Jim!) prompted me to look this up and write
the following program (which I call kset, but you can call Nancy if you
like).

This program lets you switch consoles with Alt-F1 through Alt-F8 (instead
of the irritating Alt-Sysreq F1 through Alt-Sysreq F8);  modify to taste.
I wrote and tested it on Interactive 386/ix v2.0.1, but I assume it will
also work on the AT&T SVR3.2 release.
