54 [server][::port|:display]
55 Specifies the VNC server to connect to. The VNC server can be
56 either a hostname, or an IP address. If the server is an IPv6
57 address, it must be enclosed by square brackets. The address can
58 optionally be followed by two colons (::) and the VNC port num‐
59 ber, or alternatively by one colon (:) and the display where
60 Vinagre should run. If a port is not specified, default value of
61 5900 will be used. If the value is lower than 1024, 5900 will
62 be added to it. For example, ":0" means "5900" and ":1" means
63 ":5901". If only a port is specified, but not the hostname,
64 localhost will be assumed. Possible values for the display are
65 between 0 and 1024. If a display number greater than 1024 is
66 specified, it will be assumed to be a port. Note that you can't
67 specify the port and the display at the same time.
