ARRL bulletins are transmitted that way still today. It should not be that hard to do. I wrote a rtty program for an old 8080 processor about 20 years ago that would do that. After about 65 characters it would look for a space and would send two carriage returns, a line feed, and a leters function to be compatiable with the mechanical machines. If it did not get a space, it would force the end of line sequence after 72 charcters. I mostly use the computer sound card interface for most digital work, but do have an old mechanical machine hooked up and it is irriatating to have to watch it to make sure it gets the cr/lf instead of just printing a big black block at the end.

I'll stick with DDE interfaces for now; they aren't elegant, but they work well enough to support an ecosystem of ~20 interoperating applications. If a serious effort to define a common protocol for interoperation arises, I will certainly participate. 73, Dave, AA6YQ
