USAGE:
    vecno-cpu-miner [FLAGS] [OPTIONS] --mining-address <mining-address>

FLAGS:
    -d, --debug                   Enable debug logging level
    -h, --help                    Prints help information
        --mine-when-not-synced    Mine even when vecnod says it is not synced, only useful when passing `--allow-submit-
                                  block-when-not-synced` to vecnod  [default: false]
        --testnet                 Use testnet instead of mainnet [default: false]
    -V, --version                 Prints version information

OPTIONS:
    -s, --vecnod-address <vecnod-address>      The IP of the vecnod instance [default: 127.0.0.1]
    -a, --mining-address <mining-address>      The Vecno address for the miner reward
    -t, --threads <num-threads>                Amount of miner threads to launch [default: number of logical cpus]
    -p, --port <port>                          Vecnod port [default: Mainnet = 7110, Testnet = 7210]

To start mining you just need to run the following:

./vecno-cpu-miner --mining-address vecno:XXXXX

This will run the miner on all the available CPU cores.
