    -t and --textmode are roughly equivalent, as stated in my man page
(v1.03).

-t, --textmode
        Use canonical text mode.  If -t (but not --textmode) is used
        together with armoring and signing, this enables clearsigned mes-
        sages. This kludge is needed for PGP compatibility; normally you
        would use --sign or --clearsign to selected the type of the sig-
        nature.
