15       There are two types of encoding:
16
17              Multi-Press - Used for comments.
18
19                     Letters are represented by one or  more  presses  of  the
20                     same  key  depending on their order listed on the button.
21                     e.g.  Press 5 key once for J, twice for K, thrice for L.
22
23                     To specify a digit use the number of  letters  listed  on

25                     digit 5.  When two characters in a row use the same  key,
26                     use the "A" key as a separator.
