I was reading "The Victorian Internet" by Tom Standage and decide to build a proof of concept of an online telegraph.

This is so cool. Knowing nothing about Telegraph standards are there no explicit signals for symbols or spaces?

ITU Morse does specify punctuation marks and a few symbols, but they're rarely used in practice.

A space is denoted by a gap equal to seven dots.
