Default Morse code (when did CW become "Morse Code"?)

On my PC, I have several programs concerned with reception and

No, the programs can decode Morse code. They probably CAN NOT DECODE other
trinary encoding, whether it's sent using CW (carrier on/off), MCW (tone
modulated carrier on/off), or FSK (frequency shift keying).

You keep confusing the encoding of the data with the transmission medium.
