--status-fd N gives the file descriptor to write status messages like [GNUPG:] GOODSIG 53B620D01CE0C630 Werner Koch (dist sig) <dd...@gnu.org> [GNUPG:] TRUST_ULTIMATE which are to be used by all automated systems (e.g. scripts). IF you don't use this option no status lines are emitted at all. All other output is for humans; it may be redirected to a file descriptor other than 2 using --logger-fd M. This is slighly different from re-directing stderr directly because it works only on the internal log functions and is used for all output which might be useful to see in log files.
