     * The `with_argparser` decorators now add the Statement object created when parsing the command line to the
     `argparse.Namespace` object they pass to the `do_*` methods. It is stored in an attribute called `__statement__`.
     This can be useful if a command function needs to know the command line for things like logging.
-    * Added a `-r` option to the `load` command for automatically generating a transcript based on a script file
+    * Added a `-t` option to the `load` command for automatically generating a transcript based on a script file
 * Potentially breaking changes
     * The following commands now write to stderr instead of stdout when printing an error. This will make catching
     errors easier in pyscript.
