4.2.7 Deprecated options
------------------------

'-t, --textmode'
'--no-textmode'
     Treat input files as text and store them in the OpenPGP canonical
     text form with standard "CRLF" line endings.  This also sets the
     necessary flags to inform the recipient that the encrypted or
     signed data is text and may need its line endings converted back to
     whatever the local system uses.  This option was useful when
     communicating between two platforms with different line ending
     conventions (UNIX-like to Mac, Mac to Windows, etc).
     '--no-textmode' disables this option, and is the default.  Note
     that this is a legacy option which should not anymore be used by
     any modern software.

'--force-v3-sigs'
'--no-force-v3-sigs'
'--force-v4-certs'
'--no-force-v4-certs'
     These options are obsolete and have no effect since GnuPG 2.1.

'--show-photos'
'--no-show-photos'
     Causes '--list-keys', '--list-signatures', '--list-public-keys',
     '--list-secret-keys', and verifying a signature to also display the
     photo ID attached to the key, if any.  See also '--photo-viewer'.
     These options are deprecated.  Use '--list-options
     [no-]show-photos' and/or '--verify-options [no-]show-photos'
     instead.

'--show-keyring'
     Display the keyring name at the head of key listings to show which
     keyring a given key resides on.  This option is deprecated: use
     '--list-options [no-]show-keyring' instead.

'--show-notation'
'--no-show-notation'
     Show signature notations in the '--list-signatures' or
     '--check-signatures' listings as well as when verifying a signature
     with a notation in it.  These options are deprecated.  Use
     '--list-options [no-]show-notation' and/or '--verify-options
     [no-]show-notation' instead.

'--show-policy-url'
'--no-show-policy-url'
     Show policy URLs in the '--list-signatures' or '--check-signatures'
     listings as well as when verifying a signature with a policy URL in
     it.  These options are deprecated.  Use '--list-options
     [no-]show-policy-url' and/or '--verify-options
     [no-]show-policy-url' instead.

     This option is deprecated and has no more effect since version
     2.3.9.
