Description: AFSK and ``aprs``
        =================
        
        Bell 202 Audio Frequency Shift Keying encoder
        
        Library to generate Bell 202 AFSK audio samples and
        AFSK encoded APRS/AX.25 packets.
        
        The ``aprs`` command line program encodes APRS packets
        as AFSK audio data.
        
        Installation
        ------------
        
        Install with ``pip``::
        
        $ pip install afsk
        $ pip install pyaudio
        
        PyAudio is optional, so must be installed separately.
        
        If you want to use the CLI program to play APRS packets via your
        soundcard, install PyAudio. Otherwise, if you just want to generate
        Wave files of AFSK data, you can skip it.
        
        For development, change to the afsk directory and install with::
        
        $ pip install -r requirements.txt
        $ python setup.py develop
        
        Requires Python 2.6 or 2.7.
        
        Command Line Interface
        ----------------------
        
        Generate APRS messages with the ``aprs`` CLI program::
        
        $ aprs --callsign <your callsign> ":EMAIL    :test@example.com Test email"
        
        Specify your message body with INFO command line argument. Be sure to wrap the message in
        quotes so it's passed as one argument, spaces includd.
        
        At the moment, no message formats are implemented in the ``aprs`` program; you must
        construct the body string yourself. For instance, in the example above, the string
        passed as an argument to ``aprs`` follows the email messsage format specified for APRS.
        
        You *must* specify your amateur radio callsign with the ``--callsign`` or ``-c`` flags.
        
        Use the ``--output`` option to write audio to a Wave file (use '-' for STDOUT) rather
        than play over the soundcard.
        
        Get a listing of other options with ``aprs --help``.
