Great, but now I'm in doubt: the rationale for explicitly discussing
file-backed TrueCrypt volumes was that it's the most common usecase.
And now, the doc only speaks of *devices*, as in "Replace [device]
with the name of the device". I'm not sure whether anyone will guess
that they can as well pass the name of a regular file, as opposed to
a device name.
How about "Replace [device] with the name of the device or file that
contains your TrueCrypt volume", or similar?
