Alloc

Synopsis

$cons->Alloc

Allocates a new console for the process. Returns undef on error or a nonzero value on success. A process cannot be associated with more than one console, so this method will fail if there is already an allocated console. Use Free to detach the process from the console, and then call Alloc to create a new console.
