 .IP "resize"
 Increase the size of a tomb file to the amount specified by the
-\fI-s\fR option, which is the new size in megabytes (MiB). Full access to the tomb using
-a key (\fI-k\fR) and its password is required. Tombs can only grow and
-can never be made smaller. This command makes use of the cryptsetup(8)
-resize feature and the resize2fs command: its much more practical than
-creating a new tomb and moving everything into it.
