NAME
       deallocvt - deallocate unused virtual terminals


SYNOPSIS
       deallocvt [ N1 N2 ... ]


DESCRIPTION
       If  given  no argument, the program deallocvt deallocates kernel memory
       and data structures for all unused virtual terminals.  If arguments  Ni
       are given, only TTYs /dev/ttyNi are deallocated.

       A  virtual  terminal is unused if it is not the foreground console, and
       no process has it open for reading or writing, and  no  text  has  been
       selected on its screen.
