I often heard the word/phrase while growing up in the Southern U.S. It means I will see you later. It is a colloquialism of the French phrase "A toute a l'heure" which loosely means "at a later hour" or "seeya" later.
The phrase was probably inserted into the Southern-English lexicon during or before the Civil War as France supported the Confederacy.
