.TH MORSE2ASCII "1" "October 2013" "morse2ascii 0.2" "User Commands" .SH NAME morse2ascii \- tool for decoding the morse codes from a PCM WAV file .SH SYNOPSIS .B morse2ascii [\fIoptions\fR] \fI\fR .SH DESCRIPTION .PP This tool employs a volume/peak based method to decode the morse codes from a PCM WAV file as well as from text and RAW PCM files. .PP It contains some options for parsing abbreviations, prosigns and qcodes. .SH OPTIONS \fB\-a\fR abbreviations and prosigns parsing .PP \fB\-q\fR q\-codes parsing .PP \fB\-r\fR F C B consider the file as raw headerless PCM data, you must specify the Frequency, Channels and Bits like \fB\-r\fR 44100 2 16 .PP \fB\-o\fR disable the automatic optimizations: DC bias adjust and normalize. Use this option only if your file is already clean and normalized .PP \fB\-m\fR morse notation output (like ...___... instead of SOS), debug .PP \fB\-w\fR FILE debug option for dumping the handled samples from the memory to FILE .PP \fB\-d\fR debug info (WAV input only) .PP Note: the input file can be a PCM WAV audio file or also a text file which uses the dotlinespace notation (._ or .\-), dit\-dah, binary and others use \- as file for reading a text stream from stdin
