This option can be used to change the default algorithms for key
generation. The @var{string} is similar to the arguments required for
-the command @option{--quick-add-key} but slightly different. For
-example the current default of @code{"rsa2048/cert,sign+rsa2048/encr"}
-(or @code{"rsa3072"}) can be changed to the value of what we currently
-call future default, which is @code{"ed25519/cert,sign+cv25519/encr"}.
-You need to consult the source code to learn the details. Note that
-the advanced key generation commands can always be used to specify a
-key algorithm directly.
