+M O R S E -- a short font report
+==================================
+
+(The telegraphic alphabet - by Udo Heyl, January 1st, 1998)
+
+Error Reports in case of UNCHANGED versions to
+ Udo Heyl,
+ Stregdaer Allee 7,
+ 99817 Eisenach,
+ Federal Republic of Germany
+or
+ DANTE, Deutschsprachige Anwendervereinigung TeX e.V.,
+ Postfach 10 18 40,
+ 69008 Heidelberg,

+ Email: dante@dante.de
+
+1. What is M O R S E ?
+************************
+
+It is a LaTeX2e - package for printing Morse code signs.
+
+The MORSE package contains the following files:
+
+ morse10.mf ---*
+ morse.alf |________ the METAFONT - files
+ morse.num |
+ morse.def ---*
+
+ morse.sty ------------ the LaTeX2e style file
+
+ morse10.tfm ------------ the TeX Font Metric file
+
+ morsedoc.tex ------------ the ** SHORT FONT REPORT **
+ LaTeX2e file
+
+ morse.doc ------------ the FONT REPORT ascii file
+
+
+COPYRIGHT (c) 1998, by Udo Heyl, Eisenach.
+
+Copying of part or all of any file in the morse package
+is allowed under the following conditions only:
+(1) You may freely distribute unchanged copies of the files. Please
+ include the documentation when you do so.
+(2) You may modify a renamed copy of any file, but only for personal
+ use or use within an organization.
+(3) You may copy fragments from the files, for personal use or for use
+ in a macro package for distribution, as long as credit is given
+ where credit is due.
+
+You are NOT ALLOWED to take money for the distribution or use of
+these files or modified versions or fragments thereof, except for
+a nominal charge for copying etc.
+
+2. How to use the MORSE package?
+********************************
+
+First and foremost you've got to copy the following files
+
+- morse10.mf, morse.def, morse.alf and morse.num
+ into your Metafont-directory
+ \emtex\mfinput\morse
+- morse.sty into your Style-directory
+ \emtex\texinput\morse and
+- morse10.tfm into your Tfm-directory
+ \emtex\tfm\morse .
+
+Note, however, that the paths may be different in your
+LaTeX2e implementation (EmTeX for MS-DOS, web2c for UNIX etc.).
+LaTeX2e is absolutely required, if you want to use MORSE,
+which doesn't run with the ANCIENT LaTeX 209.
+
+The example shows you the usage of this font:
+
+ \documentclass[10pt]{article}
+ \usepackage{morse} %%% to include morse.sty
+ \begin{document} ...
+ %..........
+ {\morse ..... }
+ %..........
+ \end{document}
+
+Telegraphic code will appear now in the current size
+and won't change the current shape. Of course you can input
+
+ {\Huge\morse M o r s e T e x t}
+
+to manage greater Morse code signs. After the command
+
+ \morse
+
+numbers, stops and letters (upper and lower case) are converted
+into Morse code, exceptions are given in Table 1 (see MORSEDOC.TEX).
+
+The exceptions are:
+
+ INPUT # OUTPUT # VALUE
+ -----------#-------------#-----------------------
+ \aAcute # .--. # á
+ \eAcute # ..-.. # é
+ \ae # .-.- # ä
+ \oe # ---. # ö
+ \ue # ..-- # ü
+ \ch # ---- # ch
+ \dq # -....- # " (double quote)
+ \sq # .----. # ' (single quote)
+ -----------#-------------#-----------------------
+
+Comments and suggestions are welcome.
+
+Since I am curious to know whether the font is useful and how it looks
+in practice, I would appreciate a short message (with reference) - or
+even some sample pages - if it is used in a publication.
+
+
+ Udo Heyl, January 1st, 1998.

+\begin{minipage}{7.4cm}
+In the year 1832 the American painter and director of the
+Plastic Arts Academy {\sc Samuel Morse} had the idea to use electromagnetism
+in order to set up a telegraphic connection.
+After some different unsuccessful experiments he could propose a model of
+his \dq Recording electric telegraph\dq ~to the New York University in 1835.
+In Washington he took out a patent for his invention in 1837.
+At the same time
+ {\sc Charles Wheatstone} in England and
+ {\sc Karl August Steinheil} in Bavaria
+had made up telegraphs.
+The one by the last mentioned was the same on principle as {\sc Morse}'s
+telegraph,
+but wasn't as useful in drawing longer lines \hfill
+because its fine and complex mecha-

+nism. That is why {\sc Steinheil} himself
+recommended the installation of {\sc Morse}'s telegraph,
+which was the better one in later experiments too because of its
+plainness and easy usage up to now.
+{\sc Morse}'s system consists of an armature with a pin, which is
+attracted by a powerized electric magnet.
+The pin prints dots or dashes onto a passing tape of paper,
+in proportion as the power circuit is complete for shorter or longer

+The character \'{a} is an
+innovation for the Hungarian language;
+\H{a}, \H{o} and \H{u} for the German vocabulary; and in Polish words
+the characters \c{a}, \c{e} and \'{o} are described by
