doc not clear?

Under "Local Setup", in the last step, it says:

> If the connection is functional, every Gerrit event should be displayed

But it gives no explanation of "every gerrit event" nor what the output might look like.

After I did all the above steps successfully, i issued the last command ssh codereview.qt-project.org gerrit stream-events, and my terminal just sat there, showing no output, doing nothing, and did not return to the command prompt.

What is expected here? DHLaw
