chvt(1) - Linux man page
Name
chvt - change foreground virtual terminal
Synopsis
chvt N
Description
The command chvt N makes /dev/ttyN the foreground terminal. (The corresponding screen
is created if it did not exist yet. To get rid of unused VTs, use deallocvt(1).) The key combination (Ctrl-)LeftAlt-FN (with N in
the range 1-12) usually has a similar effect.
