The -T option tags those values in the output, which need be be converted into
a link within NfSen in the details page.
As output formats can be very different and can also be user defined, it's the
easiest way to ear mark those fields.
This makes the resulting parser ways easier. ^A was selected, as this has no
effect on a command line, if users
copy/paste the command into a shell.
As it's used NfSen internally only it was not documented so far. Maybe I should
really add a few lines in nfdump(1) ...
Hope this helps.

Be nice to your netflow data. Use NfSen and nfdump :)
