[RTTY] IRL FSK-500

Guys, While cleaning out the storage side of the barn I recently dug out my FSK-500... Like new condition... Has the optional CW circuit...  Used in a previous lifetime for real rtty - WD-40, rolls of yellow paper, autostart thunder in the middle of the night... It was still jumpered internally to the 60 mil. keying loop to the Model 19...
   
  Anyway long story short - I wanted for old times sake to put it back in service just because it is such a gorgeous piece of gear with the handsome meter and the alternating mark and space lights -  So I changed the internal jumpers over for RS232 (no model 19 anymore) but I don't seem to have any software that will handle serial input/output RS232 level Baudot at 45 baud... I'm scratching my head here... I have a number of pieces of modern software, WF1B, MixW, MMTTY, but I don't see a way to have them display the output of the FSK-500 or drive it in transmit...  What am I missing here?
