Something occasionally happens when I am logged in at the console at ttyv0
that forces me to log in again on ttyv[greater than 0].

This loses me work in progress in the ttyv0 session,though I can see the 
processes and logon session still active in ps ax and who.

A reboot may restore stuff in .save files,but sometimes a reboot is
rather inconvenient;is there no sshortcut to re-enter the session or
bring its processes to the foreground?
