Details
The console command lists the current consoles, or creates a new one.

The first form of the console command list all consoles registered with the console manager. The listing includes the console name and the "F<n>" code for selecting it. (Use ALT F<n> to switch consoles.)

The second form of the console command starts and registers a new console running a new instance of CommandShell. If the --isolate option is used with --new, the new console's shell will run in a new Isolate.

The last form of the console command starts a raw text console without a shell. This is just for testing purposes.
