+
+This command looks up the real ID of a key or keyring from the identifier
+given, which is typically a symbolic ID such as "@s" indicating the session
+keyring, but can also be a numeric ID or "%type:desc" notation. If a special
+keyring is specified that isn't created yet, an error will be given rather than
+causing that keyring to be created.
