morse-rs

A simple program to encode to/decode from morse code.

Note

I'm exploring the Rust Book & rustlings, so wanted to build something while learning.
Supports A-Z, 0-9 (Chart/Mapping referred from on Wikipedia).
| is used for representing spaces in the encoded string
Consecutive spaces are treated as a single space
