Morse Code Lite

Morse Code Light is a straightforward piece of software capable of translating text into Morse code as well as playing the code using light.

It's a Metro app that can be installed on Windows 8, 8.1 and 10 computers, including those with touch support.

By deploying the Morse code converter on a mobile device, such as a tablet, you can switch to full screen mode to maximize the light area and play a message to someone.

Morse Code Light can be downloaded and installed via the Windows Store with little effort. It's packed in a Modern UI made from a large window with a dark theme, which shows an area for typing or pasting text messages and another one for viewing the corresponding lines and dashes.

The translation is performed in real time (as you type), so there's no need to click any buttons. Although there are no buttons visible for copying or saving the lines and dashes to file, you can select everything with your mouse (or press Ctrl+A) and right-click to copy (or press Ctrl+C). Plus, it's possible to take a screenshot and share the image using an external app.

To view how the message looks like transmitted using light, just click the "Play" button. There's also a command for stopping the light show. You can ask the Morse code transmitter to repeat the playback.

Unfortunately, there is no option integrated for opening a file to load text instead of going through the trouble of copying and pasting it into this app. Also, we've noticed that the Morse code creator isn't designed to handle large text.

Nevertheless, Morse Code Light delivers a simple solution to convert text to Morse code in a comfortable interface, as well as to play the code using light.
