+Restore the given file to a card. This command
+may be used to restore a backup key (as generated during card
+initialization) to a new card. In almost all cases this will be the
+encryption key. You should use this command only
+with the corresponding public key and make sure that the file
+given as argument is indeed the backup to restore. You should
+then select 2 to restore as encryption key.
+You will first be asked to enter the passphrase of the backup key and
