I've writen this set of tools to use CH340 USB to UART converter with old baudot teletypes.
This script takes in ascii art and removes unnecesar columns at the begining of the file.
In czech mezera is space => demezerace => remove spaces.
Takes text file, converts it to baudot and sends it to TTY.
Argumensts are tty port, baudrate, file path, print text on tape, text to print on tape
example command: python3 fileprint.py /dev/ttyUSB0 50 arts/test.txt 1 TEST
prints all availaable tty ports
Self explanatory.
Removes ilegal characters from ascii art.
Vocabulary is not complete!
Used for debbuging of tape printing
Estimates the time it takes to print an ascii art on 50 baud tty.
Basicaly TTY library.
Maybe it will be useful to someone.
All arts are borrowed from here: http://artscene.textfiles.com/rtty/
