+When a Mac offers both account authentication and the legacy VNC-password
+challenge, `-u NAME` selects the account exchange and attaches to that user's
+desktop. Omit `-u` to use the legacy VNC password instead. Add `--save` after a
+successful first connection to keep the password in the macOS login Keychain;
+later connections can use `--no-prompt`.

 The client is this package's own: no noVNC, no browser and no gateway. It signs

 password macOS Screen Sharing wants -- and decodes Raw and CopyRect, which
