cwhorse

CW decoding program inspired by cwskimmer (http://www.dxatlas.com/cwskimmer/). Will decode CW in parallel on multiple streams, and display decoded text or extracted callsigns side-by-wide with a waterfall display.

Decoding will be done by a separate library, likely based on morse-wip (https://github.com/ag1le/morse-wip), which is based on FORTRAN code found in "Optimal Bayesian estimation of the state of a probabilistically mapped memory-conditional Markov process with application to manual morse decoding" by E. L. Bell, 1977 (PhD thesis).

The name CW HORSE should induce vivid images of horses sniffing the radio-frequent ground for morse signals. See fig. 1.
