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  let-
		   ter in the order listed.

     This application will convert using both methods.

OPTIONS
     None.
