System name:		CALIBAN
Type and version:	CVAXSTAR 7.2L
Display type:		SM

What were you trying to do?
	Get geometry options to work on my console window

What's wrong:
	The commands are slightly counter-intuitive.  

What should have happened:
	config_console -show  
ought to be designed such that it will BOTH reload Xresources AND show
the console window.  The man page is also unclear about what happens
with
	show-console -config
It sounds as though it is the same as "config_console -show".  I'd think
that both options ought to behave the same, but should reload Xresource
as well as showing the console window.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
	man config_console
