I've managed to get full access to the nokia 6210 GUI by breaking down 
my routines into discreet --keysequence requests, and using some 
work-arounds for peculiar behaviour.

I'm still having one problem which I can't sort out. When using a 
direct text input screen (the type you would encounter when you 
manually added a persons name to your phone book) I can only print the 
first letter associated with that key.

To print "b" to the screen, I would expect to use:

echo '22' | /usr/local/sbin/gnokii --keysequence

but this results in "aa" being printed to the LCD screen. Is this 
likely a limitation of --keysequence or of the handset?

I know this seems a bit ridiculous, and that gnokii could easily 
achieve this with --writephonebook, but it's a college project with a 
visual empasis!

best wishes,
