-  The event id of this event is 6c1.
-
-  When the UI asks for an event id, you can just enter 6c1, and press enter. Then the program will find the most recent event in its memory 
-  with this prefix as its id, and send a reply/like to it. It is possible that some other event has the same 3 letter prefix, and is printed
-  later than your own event, in which case a different event will get a reply/like. But the odds of that happening are very low if the event
-  you are replying to is not too old.

 EXAMPLES
 --------
 
+To 'login' as a user with private key K:
+
+\$ nostr_console.exe  --prikey=K
+
 To get ALL the latest messages for last 3 days (on linux bash which allows backtick execution):
 
 \$ nostr_console.exe  --request=`echo "[\\"REQ\\",\\"l\\",{\\"since\\":\$(date -d \\'-3 day\\' +%s)}]"`
