Writing and editing a text
message

The following rules apply when writing a

text message:

u

The cursor is controlled with

t s.

u

Characters are added to the left of the

cursor.

u

Press the hash key

# briefly to switch

from "Abc" mode to "123", from "123"

to "abc", and from "abc" to "Abc" (upper

case: 1st letter upper case, all others

lower case). Press the hash key

#

before entering the letter.

u

Press the hash key

# 3 times: shows

the selection line of the characters

assigned to the hash key.

u

The first letter of the name of directory

entries is automatically capitalised, fol-

lowed by lower case letters.

Editing text

When you press a key and hold it, the

characters of that key appear in the bot-

tom display line and are highlighted one

after the other. When you release the key

the highlighted character is inserted into

the input field. For how to enter special

characters, see page 77.
The display briefly shows whether upper

or lower case letters or digits are selected

when you switch from one mode to the

next: the bottom text line displays "abc ->

Abc", "Abc -> 123" or "123 -> abc".

Order of directory entries

The directory entries are usually sorted in

alphabetical order. Spaces and digits take

first priority. The sort order is as follows:
1. Space (shown here as

s)

2. Digits (0–9)
3. Letters (alphabetical)
4. Other characters
To get round the alphabetical order of the

entries, insert a space or a digit in front of

the name. These entries will then move to

the beginning of the directory. Names

which you have preceded with an asterisk

will move to the end of the directory.
