I'm working on a project in which touch-tone users will have to enter
names, addresses and so on.

Is there a standard way of encoding these?  (One scheme that pops to
mind would be "key,position" (for L you would type 53 since 'L' is on
the 5 key in the third position).

Please respond by email as I'm not a regular reader of comp.dcom.telecom;
I'll post a summary to the net of whatever I receive.

Thanks in advance...
