In contest mode, RUMlogNG (for the Macintosh) uses the cat
commands (probably KY and TB) to send and receive RTTY (and CW
and probably PSK). This places all timing responsibility on the
K3 with no additional wires, boxes, or circuits.
There are a couple of "features" which are somewhat annoying:
(1) While you can chain sends in CW, chaining doesn't work in
RTTY (very annoying).
(2) You have to turn off decode display on the P3/SVGA to get
complete copy.

In principle, an RTTY program could use radio control commands to key FSK
via the USB cable to the radio, but none of the RTTY modems supported by
N1MM+ (including MMTTY) use this method. It should be possible to program
CAT1ASC macros into the N1MM+ function keys to implement this approach, but
I don't know whether anyone has tried this. There are a number of people
who have used a similar approach for keying CW from N1MM+ with the KX2 and
KX3, and offhand I cannot think of a reason why it would not also work in
FSK RTTY, but I have never tried it. Just as in CW, there are likely to be
some features of N1MM+ that work with more traditional methods but that
wouldn't work using this unsupported method.
