Are there really any circumstances when 'fgconsole' outputs more
than a single number? 'man fgconsole' seems to suggest otherwise.
What is more, you are using that later as $(<$VT_NR) which will
be a single line no matter what (unless you quote).
Even when this would be not the case then how do you propose
to employ later a content of "other lines"?
Whatever. A detail straight from Rube Goldberg but still a detail.
