@section Keys in the character backend multiplexer

@c man begin OPTIONS

During emulation, if you are using a character backend multiplexer
(which is the default if you are using @option{-nographic}) then
several commands are available via an escape sequence. These
key sequences all start with an escape character, which is @key{Ctrl-a}
by default, but can be changed with @option{-echr}. The list below assumes
you're using the default.

@table @key
@item Ctrl-a h
Print this help
@item Ctrl-a x
Exit emulator
@item Ctrl-a s
Save disk data back to file (if -snapshot)
@item Ctrl-a t
Toggle console timestamps
@item Ctrl-a b
Send break (magic sysrq in Linux)
@item Ctrl-a c
Rotate between the frontends connected to the multiplexer (usually
this switches between the monitor and the console)
@item Ctrl-a Ctrl-a
Send the escape character to the frontend
@end table
