(For those interested: this is intented to extend the space between
characters to help people learning morse code by giving the brain some
extra time for acoustical pattern recognition.)
Note: I slightly cleaned up the submitted patch for minor stylistic
issues, and changed the default for the new -c option to be identical
to -w.

Jordan OK'ed it, i think it's a nice one for those who need it. I
once mentioned in Usenet that i've hacked morse(6) so it can control
an external device like a tone generator or even a ham radio
transceiver, so you could actually use that `game' for really
transmitting morse code through the air. A couple of people then
bugged be to send them my hack (which it was by that time).
So i've now finally found some hours to clean it up (like freaking out
with the transmitter no longer keyed in case someone ^c's out of the
program...), and to write the man page addition.
While i was at it, i also cleaned up some minor nits in Lyndon's
/dev/speaker code, mainly #ifdef related stuff like handling getopt()
if SPEAKER is not defined etc.

EOF? The getopt(3) manpage clearly states that the return value is *-1*,
not EOF! Besides, getopt(3) isn't reading from a file. :)
Noticed-while: merging to 2.2 (where this is correct).
of the x11 based games. I'm not going to tag the originals with bsd_44_lite
and do this in two stages since it's just not worth it for this collection,
and I've got directory renames to deal with that way. Bleah.
