key recover and backup operations.
+**-a** *ID* \| **--application=**\ \ *ID*
+ Set the application ID to *ID*. Default is ``anastasis-gtk``. Used
+ to store different types of secrets from different applications
+ while using the same user attributes. Basically the application ID
+ is included in the user attributes. Not changable by the GUI as
+ only advanced users should even known about this. Applications that
+ tightly integrate Anastasis should set the application ID to their
+ respective unique name, for example the GNU Taler wallet may use
+ ``gnu-taler-wallet`` for the application ID. If anastasis-gtk is
+ to be used to recover such a secret, the respective application ID
+ must be provided on the command-line. Users that only use
+ anastasis-gtk to backup and restore secrets should not set the
+ application ID, as forgetting the ID makes the secrets irrecoverable.
