All versions of Morse Academy  prior to 5.1c used the character * to represent
the prosign  AR (end of transmission) and + to represent the prosign SK.   The
accepted CCITT standard for  correspondence between computer symbols and Morse
symbols has these definitions reversed.

Morse Academy is in error, and this has caused problems for some VE test teams
in scoring candidates.  While most test candidates write AR and SK (with a bar
over  the letters)  on paper  when  copying  a  test,  some  computer literate
students write the computer symbols.  Only the CCITT definitions are accepted.
Beginning with version 5.1c we will reverse these usages so MA conforms to the
international standard.

Because many students may have memorized the previous keyboard usage,  MA will
continue to optionally offer the older keyboard support of  * for AR and + for
SK.   It is  recommended  that  all  students  adopt  the  new CCITT compliant
standard, but we do not insist that you do.

Note  that  if  you change  this  keyboard option after Morse Academy has been
initialized with the opposite one,  you  are  responsible for regenerating any
tests generated with the first selection.

!Deletion of the file (CCITT.TXT) will automatically force MA to select the 
CCITT standard without offering the option.
