Abstract
A translator for wirelessly provided messages. A user interface is provided that permits a replacement of text to be made if a defined term is detected, followed by further replacements of text if any defined terms are found within the first replacement text. Replacement of text may also be staged, such that a first part of a replacement may be made, suspending the replacement until a condition is met. A user may fulfill the condition by entering in a string including a delimiter, whereupon a second part of the replacement is completed.
