i had a look at rc.wscons.  i have a problem with it.

it mixes the configuration of wscons with the code to do that
configuration.


this is pretty major, and must be fixed.  it is a complete
maintenance nightmare.  


i propose that wsconscfg should have a configuration file.  perhaps
using the same format as rc.wscons uses now with a keyword at the
start.  eg:


# fonts
#       name    width   height  enc     file
font    ibm     -       8       ibm     /usr/share/pcvt/fonts/vt220l.808
font    pcvt    -       -       pcvt    /usr/share/pcvt/fonts/vt220h.816
font    pcvt    -       8       pcvt    /usr/share/pcvt/fonts/vt220h.808

# screens
#	number	type	emulation
screen	0       -       vt100
screen  1       -       vt100
screen  2       -       vt100
screen  3       -       vt100
screen  4       -       -
screen  4       80x25bf vt100
screen  5       80x50   vt100


or something.

you could even use a shell script to parse this quite easily,
using almost the same rc.wscons code as now, though i'd prefer
that wsconscfg had a -C option (like ccdconfig) and read this
file itself.
