NAME
       text2tt - Convert text to Touch Tone representation

SYNOPSIS
       text2tt text ...

DESCRIPTION
       text2tt	 converts  text	 to  the  Touch	 Tone sequence used by APRStt.
       There are two types of encoding:

	      Multi-Press - Used for comments.

		     Letters are represented by	one or	more  presses  of  the
		     same  key	depending on their order listed	on the button.
		     e.g.  Press 5 key once for	J, twice for K,	thrice for L.

		     To	specify	a digit	use the	number of  letters  listed  on
		     the button	plus one.  e.g.	 Press 5 key four times	to get
		     digit  5.	When two characters in a row use the same key,
		     use the "A" key as	a separator.

	      Two-Key -	Used for callsigns.

		     Digits are	represented by a single	key press.

		     Letters (or space)	are represented	by  the	 corresponding
		     key  followed  by A, B, C,	or D depending on the order of
		     the letter	in the order listed.

       This application	will convert using both	methods.
