Yes, you can certainly do that, and I think it was mentioned in the FAQ. My reference to "config files" was not to /etc/rc.local though, but rather along the lines of how it is done in NetBSD, namely putting the proper entries into /etc/ttys and /etc/wscons.conf. My recollection was that at one time in the remote past it could be done this way on OpenBSD too, rather than using the wsfontload and wsconscfg programs. However, it's quite possible that my recollection on this detail is ... senile also.
