qsl.net/wa2nfn

cwpt links are in the middle of the page there is one for windows and one
for Linux (I only use the windows one myself)

I hope I made it clear that the small samples on the home page or even in
the readme file are ONLY EXAMPLES to show capability

The words used, length of practice, etc. are up to the users input and
options used.

Personally I think the interesting/different features and the speed
manipulation ones which require you to play the files with LCWO or ebook2cw

If anything on the web site is not clear please let me know

Tnx
