[CW] Linux CW Morse text to sound file - wav mp3 etc or MIDI

[scott mcmullen]

I've used this one before, on Fedora Core 10:
 
http://www.catb.org/~esr/morse/
 
I compiled it from the source code. 
 
I just ran it from the shell (no gui).
Not fancy, but it worked well.

Thanks Benny,

But XMLOG is a Windows program.  There is also cwmidi for Windows at afreet software which is a Windows text to MIDI converter.

I am searching for a program that will convert text files to audio files in LINUX which is a Unix type computer system, it is not Windows.

I would like a deb file which are used in the Linux distributions of Debian and Ubuntu - but any type file can be used or even source code that requires me to compile it.

XMLOG IS A GREAT LOG PROGRAM THAT WILL SEND A TEXT FILE AS CW.  IT ALSO CAN OUTPUT A SIDETONE.  THE PACKAGE IS A FREE DOWNLOAD AT www.xmlog.com.  THE FILE YOU WANT IS CALLED XCW.EXE.

I HAVE TYPED SOME NTS TRAFFIC INTO TEXT FILES AND LET THE COMPUTER SEND IT FOR ME.

Hello Ron,

Both fldigi and twcw will generate sounds from keyboard and perhaps text files.  I didn't check on the text files.

But I do not see any way to get fldigi to output to a mp3 file.  Also I can't even get twcw to work on Ubuntu 10.10 but I previously had it working in either Debian or Ubuntu version of an earlier variety.

I am still looking either for a program that will convert text files into Morse code mp3 files (or other type audio file).

I have found ebook2cw http://freshmeat.net/projects/ebook2cw which can probably do the job and does a very nice job of making an mp3 file out of an eBook and even separates the chapters in different sound files.

I'm still open to anyone's suggestion.

Thanks for your help.
