Mobile Words

This is a small program which translates between a text to the corresponing keypresses (and also the other way) on a mobile phone. (I'm was happy user of an Ericsson P1i mobile myself when this program was written). It also calculates the number of keys to press for typing the text.

Type in a plain text string (e.g. "hello, hakank").
Plain text:
A keystroke sequence is a sequence of key and the number of presses on that key. Example: the keystroke 2:3 means that key 2 is pressed 3 times (i.e. the letter "c"). A keystroke sequence is a list of such keystrokes separated by space (" ").
Type in a keystroke sequence (e.g. 4:2 3:2 5:3 5:3 6:7 1:5 1:1 9:1 6:7 7:3 3:1)
