Please add a flag so one doesn't need to clean up
$ /usr/games/morse -s IIIIII | xargs
.. .. .. .. .. .. ...-.-
$ /usr/games/morse -s IIIIII | sed \$d | xargs

with sed, if one does not want that ...-.-. junk at the end.
Indeed, that junk is not required on input, so it should be optional on
output.
Yes I am sure it is an important protocol, but sometimes the user just
wants pure morse.
P.S., such behaviour wasn't present back when I reported #192737.
