It looks like my comment might apply to many tla commands, eg, from the
first page of arch meets hello world:
$ tla my-id -H
print or change your id
usage: tla my-id [options] [id]
-h, --help Display a help message and exit.
-H Display a verbose help message and exit.
-V, --version Display a release identifier string
and exit.
-e, --errname specify program name for errors
-u, --uid print only the UID portion of the ID
With no argument print your arch id.
With an argument, record ID-STRING as your id
in ~/.arch-params/=id
...
Here, we have ID-STRING, but no mention of ID-STRING or id-string in the
usage: line, or in the options descriptions.
(I was a technical writer for a couple of years, so I can't help myself
when little things like this pop up - particularly when I'm learning
something - I just feel compelled to pass on my observations.)
