According to man gpg:
-------------------
Set the `for your eyes  only'  flag  in  the  message.   This
causes  GnuPG  to refuse to save the file unless the --output
option is given, and PGP to use the "secure  viewer"  with  a
Tempest-resistant  font  to display the message.  This option
overrides --set-filename.
--no-for-your-eyes-only  disables this option.
------------------

In a few tests I did, using gpg 1.4.2rc2, self testing an encrypted and signed text: - without --output: the result is a message without text, that shows 'encrypted,signed' in its
  long headers.
- with --output [filename]: the result is an encrypted and signed message that is processed by GnuPG as
  any other such message, without any special warnings or limitations.

The same message processed with PGP is decrypted, verified and displayed in a "secure-view" window with
TEMPEST Attack Prevention fonts.

At the receiving end, how does GnuPG processes a message that has been encrypted using "--for-your-eyes-only", without --output? Where does the actual text of the message goes? Is there such a text?
