 * Text 2 Phone Convert Version 0.1 [ALPHA]
 *

 * (C) 2005 Tyler "Tristor" Duzan	Written June 17, 2005
 *
 * Purpose:
 *
 * After a short conversation with Chewie[] on #bs@MozNET, I decided to write a small application that converts text to numbers based
 * on the same system used by cell phones/touchtone phones.  The specification I am going to follow for this is fairly loose at the moment
 * because I haven't put all the time needed into thinking this out.  I am just going to whip this up as a starter.  I think this might be 
 * fun to toy around with as well as have other possible uses.  I don't anticipate this to be used for communication that is somewhat masked in 
 * similar fashions to 'ong' because I have not written a 'descrambler'.  I suppose I will eventually have to write one, but it is a bit of a big
 * undertaking, especially considering my relative inexperience with this sort of thing.
 *
 * Specification:
 *
 * The layout of the standard touchtone phone keypad follows the following:
 *
 * 1 = NULL/Padding
 * 2 = ABC
 * 3 = DEF
 * 4 = GHI
 * 5 = JKL
 * 6 = MNO
 * 7 = PQRS
 * 8 = TUV
 * 9 = WXYZ
 * 0 = NULL/Padding
 * 
 * This differs from the standard cellular phone keypad which follows this:
 *
 * 1 = .@?!-,&:' and <RETURN>
 * 2 = ABC
 * 3 = DEF
 * 4 = GHI
 * 5 = JKL
 * 6 = MNO
 * 7 = PQRS
 * 8 = TUV
 * 9 = WXYZ
 * 0 = <SPACE> and [] (unicode blocky character)
 *
 * One thing that occurs on both of them is that each number also represents itself, so on a cell phone, if you hit 1 enough in a text message,
 * you will eventually have it show a 1 on the screen.
 *
 * I wish to follow this specification on how to do things:
 *
 * 1 = <SPACE>, NULL/Padding
 * 2 = ABC
 * 3 = DEF
 * 4 = GHI
 * 5 = JKL
 * 6 = MNO
 * 7 = PQRS
 * 8 = TUV
 * 9 = WXYZ
 * 0 = Anything that doesn't fit above
 *
 *
 * So, using my specification, an example message that looks like (without quotes), "My name is Jane, I like to goto parties.  I think they are fun."
 * would be converted to:  "691626314715263014154531861468617278437011418446518439127313860".  I think this is fairly easily workable, although I have
 * yet to figure out exactly how I am going to implement this.
 *
 *
 * ChangeLog:
 *
 * v0.1/20050617:  Created the header/comment block at the top of the source file.  Decided to wait an mull over my options for implementation.
