I think the files I'm looking at are Python config files as well.   All
these variables and values and formats look familiar.  Mine just doesn't
have the comments in it.  And, checking, there *is* an xmexample.hvm in
that directory, further supporting the view that we're looking at the same
type of thing.

None of my examples had "vncdisplay" in them, and I hadn't realised that
the .hvm example was the same flavor of puppy.

So "vncdisplay" means the value added to 5900 to get the port VNC listens
on; I'm familiar with that from other contexts, too.

This *looks* like it's *precisely* what I need, though I haven't tried it
yet (tied up on another firefight just now).

Thank you so much!
