NAME

       aldo -  A fully console morse code trainer written in ISO C++.

SYNOPSIS

       aldo

DESCRIPTION

       Aldo is developed from scratch in ISO C++ using GNU C++ Standard Library and libao (www.xiph.org/ao).
       It is a morse code learning tool which provides four type of training methods:

       Blocks
	       Identify blocks of random characters played in morse code.

       Koch
	       Two morse characters will be played at full speed (20wpm)
	       until you'll be able to identify at least 90 percent of them.
	       After that, one more character will be added, and so on.

       File
	       Identify played characters generated from a file.

       Callsign
	       Identify random callsigns played in morse code.

NOTES

       The  "Device"  option under the keyer depends on the particular driver.	The "default" setting picks the default sound device.  This option
       may be used to pick a different soundcard than the default one.

       For alsa, it is "hw:<card>,<device>", where the card and device number are the particular  hardware  devices.   The  default  is  generally
       "hw:0.0".   Generally  0  is the first card, 1 is the second, etc.  Some sound cards may have multiple output devices, the device picks the
       particular one.

       For oss, sun, and aixs, it is the device name, like /dev/dsp.

       For esd, it is the host name, like "whizbang.com:555".

       It is not used on any other drivers.
