It may not have a flashy design, but CwType easily converts text into Morse code. Don't be intimidated by the multitude of controls across its compact interface; you can immediately type or paste text into the lowest pane and the program automatically translates it into Morse code. Messages appear letter by letter with the appropriate sounds.

You also can create up to 37 text entries and assign them to a function key, or a combination of a function key and the Alt or Ctrl key. There are options to modify the speed, dash-dot ratio, interletter spaces, and beacon period. The Help file is on the technical side, but does provide guidance for connecting your computer to a transceiver and using the program's features.

Though it would be nice if the program visually displayed the dashes and dots with the sounds, you can't complain about the cost of this freeware program, and intermediate users and above who are interested in Morse code will appreciate what it offers.

What’s new in version 2.20

The option "Setup / Interface / Message Channel" was made. The option "Setup / Interface / Mox & Paddle / Send whole word omly" was made. Inter-letter space (ILS) value can be changed with step of 0.25 dot now.
