I was struggling with the 5wpm test, and had nearly memorized the ARRL audio tapes. So I needed a way to generate tests, and especially qso's. Couldn't find anything on the net for Linux except cwtext, so I used that algorithm to get started. Then kept adding features.

Spent all day Saturday and Sunday morning coding, then spent Sunday afternoon practicing.

NOTE: I passed the test, but I will never ever be a morse code fan. (I don't stare at blinking LEDs to program computers either.) I don't mind it being required for Amateur Extra.
