It is more readable when text is formatted properly, with keywords such
as command names and in-line examples "preformatted" (you can surround
these words with {{double braces}}).

As for larger code samples or config snippets, they are nicer-looking
inside a {code} tag (which should automatically convert into an area
with proper formatting, into where you must copy-paste your text again).

A recent "non-standard" convention is to prefix shell-executed lines
with a ":;" pseudo-prompt so as to mark them as something the user types
and still allow easy copy-pasting of large sets of commands from a web
browser into the shell.

I'll update this Wiki page now so you can see what I mean :)

Thanks for your write-up, seems good. Can you specify, however, whether
in this solution the VNC server dies upon client disconnection, or a
client may reconnect to the same session in case of i.e. networking
glitch (if yes - how)?
