+An application is defined in
+\fBamanda.conf\fR(5)
+as follows:
+.sp
+.nf
+define application\-tool $appconfigname {
+   plugin "$pluginname"
+   property "$PROPERTY_NAME" "$PROPERTY_VALUE"
+   \&.\&.\&.
+}
+.fi
+and then referenced in a dumptype as
+.sp
+.nf
+define dumptype $dumptypename {
+   \&.\&.\&.
+   program "APPLICATION"
+   application "$appconfigname"
+}
+.fi
+.PP
+Application properties, like Amanda configuration parameters, are insensitive to case, and
+\-
+(dash) and
+_
+(underscore) may be used interchangeably\&.
+.PP
+See the individual plugin documentation for properties applicable to each plugin\&.
