You've GOT to be kidding -- CW waveshaping is spectacularly good 
already. If it ain't broke, don't try to fix it!  And, last I heard, 
Wayne has the code locked up so it cannot be screwed up.

Besides, the time domain (rise/fall times) is the wrong way to look at 
keying. The only effective way is in the frequency domain, where the P3 
with SVGA can resolve to a few Hz when set for narrow scan widths.
