It has an example, which should have cleared up things. However, I'm
not yet convinced that option is for your use case, because I don't
yet understand your use case well enough.

Unless you loathe the mouse, C-mouse-3 will pop up the same menu as
the one that would have been available from the menu bar.

Typing 'q' (for "quit") would have been a better and easier way out.
But there's nothing wrong with killing the Info buffer, either.

That's irrelevant, because eventually you'd want to access files.
That's what Emacs is for, right?

Is this a single use case or two separate ones?
Assuming they are separate: for the first one, is using the -dDISPLAY
option (without any client) what you want? And for the second, did
you try using server-use-tcp?

I'm afraid I don't understand why you need to run "emacsclient -nw" on
another machine. Why not remotely login and run emacsclient there?
