B<wcons> [B<-h>|B<--help>|B<-v>|B<--version>]
=head1 B<Description>
B<wcons> provides access to the remote node serial console of a single or
range or nodes or groups.
B<wcons> is a simple front-end to rcons in an xterm session for each console.
=head1 B<Options>
=over 5
=item B<-t>|B<--tile>=I<n>
Tile B<wcons> windows from top left to bottom right. If I<n> is spec-
ified then tile I<n> across. If I<n> is not specified then tile to
edge of screen. If tiled B<wcons> windows reach bottom right, then
the windows start at top left overlaying existing B<wcons> windows.
=item B<-f>|B<--font>=I<font>
B<Note:> this option is not supported yet! Use Xwindows font I<font> for B<wcons> windows.
B<wcons> supports the following font aliases:

xCAT node hardware management table. See L<nodehm(5)> for further details. This is used to determine the console access
method.

=head1 B<Bugs>
Tile mode assumes that the width of the left window border is also the
width of the right and bottom window border. Most window managers
should not have a problem. If you really need support for a screwy
window manager let me know.
