       This  collection  of  options are common to all tss2 programs and provide information that many users may
       expect.

       • -h, --help[man|no-man]: Display the tools manpage.  By default, it attempts to invoke the manpager for
         the tool, however, on failure will output a short tool summary.  This is the same behavior if the “man”
         option argument is specified, however if explicit “man” is requested, the tool will provide errors from
         man on stderr.  If the “no-man” option if specified, or the manpager fails, the short options  will  be
         output to stdout.

         To  successfully  use  the  manpages  feature  requires the manpages to be installed or on MANPATH, See
         man(1) for more details.

       • -v, --version: Display version information for this tool, supported tctis and exit.

tss2_setdescription(1) - This command allows an application to assign a human readable description to  an
       object in the FAPI metadata store.  The stored data can be returned with tss2_getdescription.  Previously
       stored  data  is  overwritten by this function.  If an empty description is passed in, the stored data is
       deleted.
