setconsole: much better help text
Was:
Usage: setconsole [-r] [DEVICE]
Redirect system console output to DEVICE (default: /dev/tty)
-r Reset output to /dev/console
Now:
Usage: setconsole [-r] [DEVICE]
Make writes to /dev/console appear on DEVICE (default: /dev/tty).
Does not redirect kernel log output or reads from /dev/console.
-r Reset: writes to /dev/console go to kernel log tty(s)
function old new delta
