Comments from font file

This comment was included with the font file and propably contains additional information about the font:

Morse by Glenn Chappell <ggc@uiuc.edu> 10/95
Based on info from "Morse Code and the Phonetic Alphabets"
URL: http://www.soton.ac.uk/~scp93ch/refer/alphabet.html
Includes some ISO Latin-1 characters
Permission is hereby given to modify this font, as long as the
modifier's name is placed on a comment line.

Use of this font allows figlet to convert ASCII to International Morse
Code.

The following substitutions have been made, i.e., if figlet receives a
character on the left as input, it will print the Morse Code for the
character on the right:
!               -> .
;               -> :
[]{}            -> ()
German s-z      -> ss
Latin-1 "prime" -> '
#               -> <Delete last word>
*               -> Ch

Except as noted above, characters not available in Morse Code will print
as "?".

Inter-word spaces have been enlarged to improve readability. To conform
to the standards for automatic transmission of Morse Code, use smushmode
zero ("figlet -f morse -m0"); wait the duration of a dot for each blank
in the output, as well as between any two output characters (dots,
dashes or blanks).

Explanation of first line:
flf2 - "magic number" for file identification
a    - should always be `a', for now
$    - the "hardblank" -- prints as a blank, but can't be smushed
1    - height of a character
1    - height of a character, not including descenders
30   - max line length (excluding comment lines) + a fudge factor
-1   - default smushmode for this font
40   - number of comment lines
